Asset Vue Highlights Value of DCAM For Data Center Colocation Facilities
The company has identified top drivers for Colo Data Center Asset Management (DCAM) adoption.
Industry research shows that nearly 1 in 4 data centers in North America are outsourced —managed and maintained at offsite colocation facilities. But the increasing popularity of these colocation data center facilities comes at a cost to both customers and the IT professionals operating the data centers. That cost is the inability to sufficiently track and manage IT assets due to the lack of strong data center asset management processes and technologies. Asset Vue has identified significant reasons for data center colocation facilities to adopt data center asset management (DCAM) solutions. The trends the company has identified also indicate a rapidly closing window for data center colocation facilities to gain a competitive advantage by implementing DCAM.
“As the colocation industry grows and matures, clients expectations are growing too,” said John Consoli, executive vice president for Asset Vue. “Our colocation partners see the value in providing a differentiated service based on the value they provide their IT customers – and that increasingly includes a DCAM solution like Asset Vue.”
