Data centers are among the largest energy consumers globally and the pressure to optimize is intensifying.

Why This Matters
The gap between average PUE
(1.56) and best-in-class (1.09) represents massive energy waste. For a 10MW data center, that
gap means $2-4M in annual excess energy costs. With AI workloads driving rack densities from
10kW to 100kW+, and global data center demand projected to double by 2030, optimization isn't
optional it's survival.
A unified platform that monitors, analyzes, and optimizes across your entire infrastructure
Sensors across racks, rows, CRACs, chillers, PDUs, and UPS systems collect real-time data
Unified telemetry from any protocol (BACnet, Modbus, SNMP) into a single data model
Identifies hot spots, inefficiencies, anomalies, and optimization opportunities in real-time
Dashboards, alerts, compliance reports, and optimization recommendations
Industry Challenges
Mission-critical operations demand perfect visibility. Here's what's at stake.
The gap between average PUE (1.56) and best-in-class (1.09) represents millions in wasted energy annually. Investors and customers demand continuous improvement.
Cooling consumes 30-40% of data center energy. With AI workloads pushing rack densities from 10kW to 100kW+, traditional cooling approaches are hitting limits.
ASHRAE A1-A4 guidelines define acceptable operating envelopes. Excursions risk equipment warranties, SLA penalties, and customer trust at $7,500/minute of downtime.
