OmniCenter® Envronmental Monitor

OmniCenter® Envronmental Monitor is designed to help control data center costs, consolidate resources, assist in virtualization planning, and set, measure, and achieve power consumption goals.

Measure Power Utilization and Costs

Power costs can make up almost 50% of the total cost of ownership of a server over its lifetime, and yet many companies have no information on how much power their systems are using, or how to control those costs.

Using Envronmental Monitor, you can get accurate, real-time measurement of your IT power consumption, even without installing smart power distribution units. OmniCenter uses an advanced algorithm to compute power utilization based on system performance metrics and provides rack-by-rack power statistics over time, total power usage statistics, and the ability to set power consumption goals and measure your progress towards them. Detailed reporting of power usage on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, including peakhour utilization, is included. Envronmental Monitor also includes the ability to set realtime alerts for power consumption or temperature thresholds.

Get the Data to Make Smart Virtualization Decisions

Identifying candidate systems for virtualization and completing a successful migration into a virtual host shouldn't be left to chance. Many organizations waste significant time and resources attempting virtualization projects that ultimately have to be redone due to simultaneous resource requirement incompatibilities, but they lack the concrete data required to make informed decisions.

Envronmental Monitor includes idle-server reporting, to instantly identify under-utilized server resources that are candidates for virtualization, and provides a consolidation advisor to view sophisticated 'what-if' reports that show the projected results for combining systems into a single virtual host platform. This unprecedented visibility allows you to make well-informed decisions about your virtual server architecture based on empirical, measured data, increasing your chances of success and saving many hours during deployments.

Envronmental Monitor is included with Netreo's OmniCenter Enterprise Network Management appliance. By using an appliance-based architecture, OmniCenter allows for faster and easier deployment with no installation hassles, and provides comprehensive network management for servers, routers, firewalls, switches, load balancers, and other enterprise IT devices with no agents, clients, probes, or software to install.
