(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Data center monitoring solutions provider Modius (www.modius.com) announced on Thursday that its OpenData Enterprise Edition (www.modius.com/Enterprise) will integrate with Intel Data Center Manager (software.intel.com/sites/datacentermanager), a real-time data center power and thermal management solution that captures power and temperature data from a broad range of IT equipment.

The partnership announcement comes a few months after Modius released OpenData version 3.5.

Intel DCM will improve the visibility and analytics of OpenData Enterprise Edition by providing energy intelligence about critical IT and facilities assets, helping IT and data center managers better understand and manage the power consumption of their computing resources.

By integrating Intel DCM directly into Modius OpenData, it will introduce a new level of functionality that was not previously available before.

These new features include device- and rack-level capacity analysis with real-time alarming for power deviations, device- and rack-level temperature analysis with real-time alarming for temperature deviations, end-to-end visibility of the power chain from the UPS to individual servers, and floor-level cold spot and hot spot identification and remediation.

The technology integration will also provide data center managers with improved data center efficiency and lower power costs, expanded data center capacity, and early warning of data center problems and potential outages.

OpenData’s operational intelligence, enabled by the reach and granularity of its data, capture the accuracy of its analytics, and the extensibility of its feature set to use the latest data center metrics, helps IT and data center managers better understand and manage the power consumption of their computing resources.

“We are delighted to work with an industry leader like Intel,” said Craig Compiano, CEO of Modius. “This collaboration between Intel and Modius results in a comprehensive solution that gives data center and facilities managers greater visibility into the operational efficiency of their IT equipment, as well as other equipment key to their mission critical ecosystem, such as Power Distribution Units.”

OpenData has offers a range of features for data center monitoring and analysis, including new reports for tracking current values by customizable groups, new statistical analysis tools for calculating energy consumption and other performance metrics, and improved visualization of systems and subsystems to identify performance anomalies, patterns and trends across different groupings of equipment. 

Modius develops and provides real-time monitoring and analytic solutions that enable unified visibility and better control over the critical systems in the data center, including power, cooling and space.
