Whitepaper: Here is how Bull aims to help organizations manage their Data Centers in the face of new energy issues
Progressively organizations, face growing challenges in terms of Data
Center management. These challenges include: lack of space, rising energy
bills, environmental constraints, additional charges and degradation of service
levels because of fragmented management. According to Bull this situation leads
to the need for an industrial-scale approach to Data Center management.
In this dynamic, Bull has developed a staged approach to providing support:
from upfront consultancy right through to the integration of dedicated software
suites and
monitoring of services.
This approach, involves both facilities management and the IT Department. Connectikpeople observes that, its goal is to
optimize all the various elements of the Data Center, from the building itself
to the IT infrastructure. By providing more accurate, shared information, along
with more clearly defined roles.
Bull added: ‘’DCIM ensures that costs are kept under control, optimizes
resources and delivers measurable, guaranteed levels of performance’’.
Connectikpeople has captured the following benefits:
- Energy savings
- Improved business/user productivity
- Faster data gathering and reporting
- Fewer SLA (Service Level Agreement) penalties
- High availability for critical systems.
Note: Bull currently relies on Data Center infrastructure management
solutions from its partner CA Technologies, which cover the entire spectrum of
Data Center supervision metrics.
