The Internet of Things is big news. However, in today’s data centers, many “things” generate information that is never analyzed, or only used for basic functions like anomaly detection. This talk will explore what’s required for the IoT to create real economic value in mission critical environments. Specific examples will be shared showing how the IoT can optimize cooling.

Data Center Infrastructure Management is emerging as an essential augmentation of the software defined infrastructure (SDI) framework.

The IT space has matured, yet, standardization is still hard to come by. The core group of products – Termination, Network, Server/Storage share much in common. The process, however; is still unique for each site, leading to inefficiencies while hand-picking each component. Leaving the basic system approach behind, the Industrialization of the Data Center moves beyond selecting individual components, resulting in a comprehensive solution and incorporating products into one deliverable.
