DCIM stands for Datacenter Infrastructure Management, that is the set of devices or tools that can monitor and measure the performance of a data center and energy consumption.

In practice, the DCIM is the tool usingby  the Green Datacenter to support more efficient data centers and IT managers with a particular attention to the problems of energy efficiency.

From an article published by Gartner (DCIM: Going Beyond IT), emerges as the use of these tools is able to reduce energy consumption of a CED  also of 20%. 
It is estimated that 60% of the top 2014 Datacenter adopt such tools.

Sentinet³ is designed to be not only an instrument of Unified Proactive Monitoring but an efficient and effective tool for Datacenter Infrastructure Management.

But how does it work?

Sentinet³ is able to measure the energy consumption of the entire data center, of each Server inside the racks and to calculate the PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) and DCiE (Datacenter Infrastructure efficiency) that are indicators of energy efficiency of a CED.

But not only that, thanks to the use of temperature sensors and humidity Sentinet³ allows you to locate the areas of the CED with insufficient cooling or superabundant allowing it to optimize this expenditure, which comes up to 40% of the total energy expenditure of a CED.
