A new perspective on managing the critical infrastructure gaps is emerging that recognizes:

• the importance of real-time data to understand the true capacity of available infrastructure

• the criticality of interdependencies between logical and physical layers

• the need for holistic management capabilities and visibility of IT and facilities infrastructures

• the need for more powerful management tools that offer a rich, visual view of the infrastructure and can guide design and change management

 

This forward-looking perspective will be the guiding force behind new data center infrastructure management (DCIM) solutions from industry leaders such as Emerson Network Power.
