In addition to the deployment flexibility offered by the CenterScape Cloud hosted solution, a new simplified subscription pricing model delivers a fixed price for the complete solution on an annual per-rack basis. This commercial model significantly lowers the entry cost for end users and data centre operators – a key consideration for IT departments searching for greater scalability and rapid return on investment from solutions.
Ed Healy, CEO at RF Code, said “An increasing number of organisations are consolidating on-premise data centres and migrating to cloud and colocation facilities. However, IT departments must have the same end-to-end visibility of their critical IT assets in these environments. By providing CenterScape as a cloud-based service, businesses can ensure the same level of insight, regardless of whether assets are in their own facilities or located externally. And, while our solutions are already well known for rapid return on investment, our new subscription model makes the customer’s time-to-value even shorter.”
By tracking the precise location of physical assets throughout their complete lifecycle, measuring environmental conditions around these assets and providing analytics for improving capacity utilisation and data centre service levels, CenterScape decreases the risk of costly downtime, increases operational efficiency and reduces the total cost of ownership of data centre and IT operations.
IT departments are increasingly searching for solutions that deliver these business outcomes. CenterScape’s benefits include accurate asset auditing, automated inventory management, optimised capacity planning and highly granular environmental monitoring. Ultimately, CenterScape provides organisations with real-time insight, control and predictability over operational risks, costs and compliance in the data centre.
Key functionalities include:
· Track any asset to its precise physical location at any given time using CenterScape’s highly scalable network of internet-connected wire-free sensors
· Generate advanced custom reports to capture current and historical data around critical issues or SLA violations for compliance purposes
· Manage every change within the data centre across assets and supporting infrastructure to detect issues that require immediate attention, troubleshooting and remediation, such as unauthorised asset movement and asset tamper
· Flexible open-architecture for powerful integration with native systems, IT service management solutions, DCIM platforms and other systems
