PUE Energy Module
Sufficient power supply is the foundation of consistent uptime for numerous servers, network devices and infrastructure facilities in data centers. However, this comes with the tremendous power consumption that has always been a critical challenge for data center managers. Therefore, how to reduce power consumption while maintaining the best availability of data center operation is a critical mission of the management team. The Energy Management Module is designed and developed for resolving this issue.
PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) is the indicator for measuring power consumption. It is reported from DIGITIMES that, if the PUE can be lowered by 0.1 in a 100KW data center, there will be approximately US$10,000 electricity costs saved annually. It is undoubtedly important for data center managers to make their best efforts to manage energy consumption effectively.

The Energy Module contains the functions of energy measurement, PUE calculation, electricity tariff formula, and historical data analysis. In addition, it includes organizational energy classification and management mechanisms. With time and experience operating this system, datacenter managers develop greater agility for managing energy consumption. This module can transform energy consumption data collected from power meters, UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply), PDU (Power Distribution Unit) and environment detectors into dynamic charts and graphs, including line charts, bar charts, and pie charts based on user preference.

Electricity Fee Calculation
- The collected power meter kWh data can be used for electricity fee analysis. The electricity rate formula can be flexibly set and then the electricity bill can be generated according to the specified time zone.
Energy Usage Analysis
- The tariff formula can be designed according to the time period, and each organization can individually set its own electricity fee formula.
- Power and energy analysis is based on electricity meter or organization.
Incident Module
When an event occurs, the Incident Module can help data center managers restore equipment to normal operation with the best repair quality in the shortest possible time, reduce business losses of the enterprise or organization, and ensure the best operation and maintenance efficiency and service continuity.
- The Incident Management functional module is a management platform that was developed based on ITIL-defined processes and stages.
- It helps users to quickly record and classify incidents that occur in the data center, assigning tasks to appropriate handlers and increasing failure elimination efficiency.
- The graphs and trend charts make it more efficient to track the incident/failure elimination status.
- The historical records of these processes can be referenced if there is a similar incident/failure that occurs again in the future.
Asset Module
Asset Management is the core function of DCIM management activities. In a datacenter, there can be thousands of assets including infrastructure facilities such as power and cooling. There are also IT assets such as servers, storage, networks, and others. Constantly tracking and monitoring these assets are important tasks for datacenter managers. In the case of assets without proper management, it often leads to a higher mean time to repair (MTTR) and lowering the availability of the data center’s equipment.

The Asset Management function module provides an interface that is easy to use and monitor, allowing the datacenter managers to classify and inquire about detailed information on power, cooling, network, and servers. It can also generate a power path diagram and network topology according to the device’s downstream relationships. The simple, real-time and easy-to-use operation platform enables users to quickly and clearly identify the status of the power and IT assets.
Advantages
- Quickly classify and search any asset in the system.
- Export and import asset information from Excel files for batch applications.
- Document management reserves specifications, manuals, purchase orders, OI, and others in the system.
- Conduct asset expiration analysis and rack power ranking analysis.
Rack Management
Well-designed rack front and rear views make it easier for datacenter managers to quickly and clearly get device locations and capacity status at a glance.
- Racks can be grouped as rows, islands, rooms or sites.
- Rack IT devices (e.g., servers, blade, switching hub) and power devices (i.e. PDU) can be displayed as images or texts.
- Provide a cabinet view and export the result as an excel file.

  The 3D rack detail view lets the user know the location of actual assets in the rack, which can be used to check whether they interfere with each other.
- Temperature/ Humidity:
  Collect the inlet air temperature and humidity of the rack, and display different alarms in different colors.
Capacity Module
The Capacity Module allows data center managers to plan for the future more effectively through the use of detailed data on rack space, weight, network, power and cooling capacity in the data center. For example, Capacity Module helps data center managers evaluate resource consumption, making it easier for them to plan and decide on the future allocation and most suitable installation locations for IT devices.

Customizable templates can be designed for different types of assets. Users can also upload photos of the inspected assets to InfraSuite Manager. Unique QR codes of each asset can be generated by the system, making tasks more intuitive.
Analytics Module
The Analytics Module is not just for a single site but for the entire organization. The electricity tariff formula can be customized for each department. In terms of detailed energy analysis, Delta offers diverse scenario analyses, including energy usage KPI, comparison, energy combination analysis, abnormal energy usage ranking, and energy usage estimation. In terms of asset analysis, it can provide rack power ranking by average and peak power for organization, asset expiration report and asset inspection analysis.
Machine Learning Function
Because each project is different in configuration and application, the existing EMS3000 historical database (1 year) must be used for the learning materials to model and predict.
- Predict Target Trends
  To predict the target trend for the next month, select a target such as total power trend, network traffic or water consumption. The trend screen shows the predicted and actual curves and provides an RMSE error for reference.
- Forecast Capacity Expiration Date
  Assist the data center operator understand when the current power and cooling capacity will be fully occupied. Based on this, you can arrange to purchase new equipment or build a new datacenter in advance.
