OpenData Enterprise Edition
Product Overview
OpenData Enterprise Edition software proides real-time monitoring and decision support that enables unified visibility and better control over the critical systems in your data center, including power, cooling and space. It is ideal for enterprises and co-lo facilities that require comprehensive data center monitoring and analysis across multiple sites, simultaneously through a unified management console. It doesn't matter whether your data centers, server rooms or technology closets are across the campus or across the continent. With OpenData Enterprise Edition you can optimize capacity and increase efficiencies across your entire data center operations enterprise-wide.
Using a variety of communications protocols, OpenData collects, normalizes and evaluates performance data for all power and cooling equipment (both networked and serial) from all vendors. This deep integration and data normalization enables you to see a complete, unified view of data center operations so that you can:
- Simplify Data Center Management. Uncover the true state for your data center by monitoring all power and cooling equipment, environmental sensors, and other equipment through a single pane of glass.
- Prevent Data Center Outages. Get unified health and status alarms for all equipment, thus mitigating risks by managing a consistent alarm poicy enterprise-wide.
- Maximize Capacity. Enable more IT growth--and defer capex-- by identifying stranded capacity and optimizing all of the power and cooling equipment in the data center.
| Monitor multiple sites | Data center operations frequently span multiple sites, such as technology closets and server rooms that mushroom across a university campus, or enterprise data centers across the planet. OpenData Enterprise Edition provides an intelligent, federated view of multiple sites, which enable data center managers to optimize performance, including the energy efficiency, of the entire network infrastructure, not just one physical site. |
| Collect and analyze as much data as you need, whenever you need it | OpenData provides the flexibility to select all of the data (or any subset of that data) from all of the devices in a data center to create new dashboards and reports on the fly--without programming. |
| Review incisive analysis and trend reports for planning or troubleshooting | OpenData is designed as a broad and granular monitoring and decision support tool to provide complete visibility and analysis across all devcies and any performance dimension. |
| Generate a report with the on-boarding reporting capabilities | OpenData provides both standard and custom reports through the on-boarding of reporting capabilities. Because the data is not exported, visiblity of that report remains and its value is not lost. |
| Change alarm thresholds whenever you need | OpenData can set a threshold on any data point on any device, and then allow the user to edit that threshold. |
| Synchronize alarms with a conditional, customer-driven policy | OpenData is not limited to reporting a device fault. it can send a conditional alert for a device which is operating beyond set policies. |
OpenData Enterprise Edition utilizes a flexible set of data collectors, which are small, independent intelligent software instances that can be installed at remote sites. The software can live on a PC, server white space, or a data collector device provided by Modius. The data collectors can be deployed in any quantity required to cover all sites, from technology closets to the data center’s mechanical yard. Each data collector communicates with the OpenData application to pass data securely so that it can be stored and accessed from a central repository. This unique architecture makes the solution infinitely scalable for even the largest of enterprise, MSPs or co-location facilities.
