AIT Introduces PowerBCM® 2.0 - Improved Real-Time Monitoring for Co-Lo Hosted Data Centres (DCIM)

Reading, United Kingdom, August 5, 2015 (Newswire.com) - ​AIT Partnership Group Ltd, the leading UK integrator of Data Centre Infrastructure Management Services & Software (DCIM) ​has announced the improved real-time monitoring capabilities of PowerBCM®​ 2.0.

​PowerBCM®​ is a real-time monitoring solution developed to address the needs of co-lo hosting providers. PowerBCM®​ is a ​robust, secure, web based system that solves the challenge of monitoring power circuit readings both across the site for providers and at the rack level for individual customers. 

PowerBCM® 2.0 is a really cost effective solution for any co-lo provider that wants to provide their customers with real-time data on power consumption and temperature in their racks. It provides exactly what co-lo providers need at a fraction of the cost of other solutions.

Steve Bailey, Managing Director, AIT Partnership Group Ltd

​The new features of PowerBCM®​ 2.0 include:

• ​The ability to collect kWh data from 3rd party smart meters outputting Modbus and SNMP, including PDUs, branch circuit meters and rack PDUs
  ​
• The integration of temperature and environmental sensors into interactive floor plans with thermal mapping
   
• Secure customer login to view only their rack power and environmental data in an easy to use GUI​

​The ability to monitor any standards based 3rd party metering equipment means PowerBCM®​ can easily replace less agile and more expensive software from hardware vendors. The code has been developed and written by AITs in-house agile consultancy team which means that it can be quickly tailored to suit specific requirements.

​Steve Bailey, Managing Director of AIT Partnership Group stated, "​PowerBCM®​ 2.0 is a really cost effective solution for any co-lo provider that wants to provide their customers with real-time data on power consumption and temperature in their racks.
