CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced the expansion of
its presence in the Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM)
market with its launch of CA Data Center Infrastructure Management
4.0 (CA DCIM)—its next generation solution that leverages and
extends the company’s industry-leading technology for monitoring,
managing and optimizing the use of power, cooling, space and assets
in the data center.
CA DCIM 4.0 enables customers to collect power and environmental
information from data center facilities and IT systems in order to
better, analyze, report, alert and control the data center
environment. It helps decision-makers to more effectively
understand energy consumption and use, visualize data center space,
place and locate data center assets, manage asset lifecycle,
perform root-cause analysis and plan capacity.
As a result of these capabilities, customers can reduce costs,
improve service levels and respond more quickly to change. CA DCIM
4.0 also enables customers to integrate the management of their
data center infrastructure with the management of IT to better meet
the needs of the business. These benefits are especially important
as organizations need to fulfill rapidly expanding business demands
within limited budgets.
“CA DCIM 4.0 provides customers with a comprehensive monitoring
and management system which helps bring together IT and facilities
to meet the needs of the business more reliably and rapidly, and at
lower cost,” said Terrence Clark, general manager, Energy and
Sustainability, CA Technologies. “With CA DCIM’s advanced
functionality, customers can consistently make better use of power,
space and cooling capacity so that they can achieve more with their
critical infrastructure.”
CA DCIM 4.0 introduces a variety of enhancements, including:
- Improved IT asset discovery and
monitoring for better identification of potentially underutilized
equipment;
- Expanded integration gateway functions
for improved data capture;
- 3-D visualization of thermal
environment for discovering hot spots that indicate inefficiencies
and potential threats to critical IT services;
- Simplified analysis, identification and
recommendation of available rack space based on multiple
factors;
- Integration with CA Executive Insight
for Service Assurance; and
- Expanded integration with Cisco
EnergyWise.
In addition to integrating with IT management tools such as
service desks, change management systems, configuration management
databases (CMDBs), workload and virtualization management tools, CA
DCIM 4.0 enables customers to leverage facilities management
systems such as BMS, power distribution, HVAC, and environmental
sensors—unifying them for data center monitoring, troubleshooting,
optimization and planning.
UK-based IT services provider Logicalis reports it achieved 159%
ROI and an 11-month payback on its use of CA Technologies energy
management technology, which is included in the new CA DCIM
solution, through a combination of greater efficiency, improved
availability, reduced power consumption, and top-line revenue
benefits. By improving its operational efficiency, Logicalis was
able to provide more competitive offerings—allowing it to capture
higher market share.
“Because power is a major factor in the services that we
provide, we need complete visibility into our consumption, our
costs, our capacity and our efficiency,” said Logicalis CTO Simon
Daykin. “CA Technologies DCIM technology is extremely helpful to us
in this regard—not only providing us with a huge amount of useful
information about our current operations, but also enabling us to
better predict how our power consumption and environmental
conditions will change in the future.”
In a report recently published by leading IT market research and
advisory firm IDC, CA Technologies was named a worldwide
