Datacenters
Control, monitoring and optimization for your mission critical infrastructure, with Building Management System, Electrical Power Management System, Chiller Plant Manager and DCIM capabilities in a single unified platform.
Kokban uses ABB system 800xA along with Ability™ Data Center Automation suite for on-premise and hybrid cloud environments. At a base level, it is an integration and automation platform to enable transparency and interoperability for continuous optimization and high availability.
System 800xA is an open, integratable platform and controls allow data exchange and automation among systems, equipment, components and applications which enables Customer to
- Integrate data center tool sets faster, including uploading assets into tracking tools. ABB Ability™ Data Center Automation integrates data from IT, power, cooling and building systems. Imagine: No more manual data entry to calculate utilization metrics and other KPIs.
- Visualize and manage physical assets within a ‘single pane’ view of the entire data center, including multiple sites. Real-time visibility includes both high level (aggregate) and low level (granular) views of the data center infrastructure, including enterprise, floor plan, zone, system and component views. Moreover, when combined with third-party optimization tools of your choice, capacity planning and management capabilities are extended.
