In an era of escalating energy costs and pressing environmental concerns, energy efficiency has become a central focus for industries worldwide. For data centres, which are among the most energy-intensive facilities, this focus is particularly critical and no matter what size your server room, there are lessons that can be learned from implementing energy efficiency initiatives.
Data Centre Infrastructure Management DCIM Software
With rising electricity costs and the need for service resilience, data centre infrastructure management is as much about capacity planning, as it is about the ability to monitor and control physical assets within an IT, server room or datacentre environment. DCIM software packages from Server Room Environments are supplied to work with a range of devices as a central monitoring or middleware system. Each hardware manufacturer supplies a DCIM package for their systems which can generally monitor other devices using industry standard protocols.

AKCP QUicklime
Quicklime from AKCP is a powerful, centralised monitoring and management platform for remote battery energy storage systems, from AKCP. The software provides a single user interface for monitoring sensor data collected from AKCP sensorProbe+ base units such as the SPX8, from across your infrastructure, helping you to quickly identify environmental, power, cooling and security issues. The software has several price levels which reflect the number of sensors (physical and virtual) being monitored through to connection to an AI model for sensor data analysis.
With Quicklime you can bring in data from connected physical sensors and use virtual sensors to collect data from third-party systems including UPS systems, intelligent PDUs, generatord and chillers, using SNMP GET, Modbus and BACNET. Data that can be used to create and model a Digital Twin.
With Quicklime you can manage sensor thresholds and setup automatic notifications and alerts. Working desktops can be customised to display sensor data using gauges, graphs, rack mapping with visualisation using 2D and 3D maps. Using AKCP Thermal Map sensors, rack inlet and outlet and Delta-T values can be displayed for each rack to help identify cold and hot spots.
With Quicklime the asset tracking and management feature can help to find stranded capacity in your data centre. The software can display available rack space, with power meters checking for sufficient power overhead. With the addition of temperature monitoring and cabinet rack maps, you can locate colds pots and capacity can be increased without the need for additional cooling.
For energy efficiecy calculations, CFD analysis can be done with live data to create accurate reports. Whether your data centre critical facilities are remote, difficult to access sites, or simply spread over a wide area, the ability to monitor all environmental conditions from a single user interface is essential and this is what Quicklime delivers. With its built-in drawing tools you can quickly layour your data centre floorplan, complete with containment, raised flooring, racks and CRACs/CRAHs. With a click of a button you can convert the floorplan to 3D and visualise your data centre, drilling down to indivudual rack data, viewing their installed assets and displaying data. Implementing sensorCFD™ provides a visual representation of data centre airflow.
Please contact our Projects Team for a free digital twin software demo. We can use Microsoft Teams or Google Meet to host a meeting and provide you with a free online demo of the AKCP Quicklime software and features that will help you to manage power within your critical facilities, raise resilience level, improve business continuity planning and improve energy efficiency.
