Data Centre Infrastructure Management (DCIM)

Overview

SIMACS brings together power, cooling, environmental and asset data from the data centre into a single operational view, supporting capacity planning, uptime management and facility reporting.

Business Challenges

Data centre teams must track power distribution, cooling performance, environmental conditions and physical assets simultaneously, often through separate tools that don't talk to each other.

Proposed Solution

SIMACS aggregates data from PDUs, CRAC/CRAH units, UPS systems, environmental sensors and rack-level monitors into one platform with dashboards built for facility and IT operations teams.

Key Capabilities

• Power and cooling monitoring
• Rack-level environmental tracking (temperature, humidity)
• Asset and capacity visibility
• Alerting on environmental or power thresholds
• Historical and trend reporting for facility reviews

Architecture Overview

SNMP and Modbus-enabled facility devices report into SIMACS gateways, which normalize and forward data to the platform for centralized dashboards and alerting.

Applications

• Enterprise data centres
• Server rooms and edge facilities
• Co-location environments
• Hybrid on-premises and cloud-adjacent infrastructure

Benefits

• A consolidated view of power, cooling and environmental health
• Faster identification of facility-level risks
• Better-informed capacity and growth planning
• Supports uptime and compliance reporting needs
