Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) in our ever-connected data-driven era

It is very interesting to see that, Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) is continuing to expand its value, both in the issues it can address and its ability to manage the increasingly complex data center ecosystem. Forward-thinking operators are using DCIM to address data center challenges, such as regulatory compliance, Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL), and managing hybrid environments. Finally, colocation providers are finding DCIM a valuable tool in analyzing their costs by customer and in providing their customers with remote visibility into their assets.

For those who are unfamiliar, Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) has emerged as the precursor to IIoT in the data center, delivering the visibility, increased coordination across systems and support for automation that are at the core of the IIoT value proposition.
