(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) – Data center monitoring solutions provider Modius (www.modius.com) announced on Monday that its OpenData version 3.5 is now generally available. Modius says the latest version of OpenData offers improved capacity management capabilities enabling colocation enterprises to implement chargeback for power and cooling costs.
Modius says its latest release allows users to “analyze resource utilization and capacity of data center assets based on flexible, user-defined groupings.”
According to the company, OpenData 3.5 assists data center managers in generating reports of energy consumed by individual equipment, including individual racks, rows, zones or customers.
OpenData v3.5 includes new reports for tracking values, new statistical analysis tools and “improved visualization of systems and subsystems to easily identify anomalies, patterns and trends across different groupings of equipment,” Modius says.
“This release is a major step forward in achieving higher levels of data center operational maturity,” Jay Hartley, chief scientist at Modius said in a statement. “Our new features provide facility managers with custom views of actionable intelligence from diverse equipment sources. Reports can reflect operational perspectives like zones or racks, or business perspectives like external customers or internal cost centers.”
The company says it will provide a live demo of OpenData v3.5 this week at Data Center World Conference at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas. Modius is also offering a 20 minute webcast introducing its latest version of OpenData on its website.
