DCIM

Data center operators can operate effective data center operations and improve data center infrastructure planning and design with the help of a new class of software called Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM). It often takes the place of homegrown databases, Visio, and Excel. To make the most of the data center, DCIM software may connect information from many organizational domains, including Data Center Ops, Facilities, and IT.

There is a new method for managing data centers. Data center management tools might be useful for a particular task, but they frequently do not cooperate well to address common and frequently complex problems. Examples of such problems include determining where there is room to roll out new servers, identifying stranded power capacity, or something as simple as having a clear understanding of the assets you have in a data center.
