As per a study Data Centre Infrastructure Management (DCIM) grew at a CAGR of 20%. Is this hinting towards the Transition from DMaaS to DCIM has started, let’s find out.
According to Research and Markets, the global data centre infrastructure management (DCIM) market grew at a CAGR of around 20% during 2014-2019 and looking forward, the global data centre infrastructure management (DCIM) market to continue its strong growth during the next five years.
DCIM – Data Centre Infrastructure Management – comprises monitoring, measuring and managing IT equipment and supporting servers, storage, power and cooling systems and data centres. It assists in observing environmental conditions and capturing detailed information in real-time. It also helps in collecting and analysing power usage effectiveness (PUE) and cooling system energy efficiency using energy-monitoring sensors. Nowadays a lot of organizations are combining DCIM with computations fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis to optimize airflow and systems placement.
DMaaS – Data-centre Management as a Services – a services based on DCIM software. It takes data collection a step further: equipment and device data is collected from scores of data centres, and then that data is anonymized, pooled and analysed at scale. Even it can potentially transform the way data centres are managed and operated.
