EcoStruxure IT modernizes IT infrastructure monitoring and management

EcoStruxure
Schneider Electric, a global pioneer in energy management and automation digital transformation, announced the modernization of its EcoStruxure IT software portfolio for the monitoring and administration of expansive, hybrid IT infrastructure, which has grown increasingly complicated in recent years.

Business continuity is dependent on everything from the most minor endpoint to the largest data center as IT infrastructure spreads. As a result, edge deployments are now deemed as mission-critical as centralized data centers, necessitating the development of new software solutions to ensure the infrastructure's robustness and security. Furthermore, sustainability is becoming a significant trend: a company's data centers' energy consumption and carbon footprint will need to be assessed and maintained. According to Schneider Electric's internal forecasts, overall data center energy usage will reach 2,700 TWh by 2040, with 60% coming from scattered locations and 40% from data centers.

"There's been tremendous change since DCIM first emerged as a software category. The hybrid IT environment is challenging even the most sophisticated CIO organisation with maintaining the resiliency, security, and sustainability of their IT systems. We call this trend DCIM 3.0. Schneider Electric is investing in and evolving EcoStruxure IT to provide more capability, flexibility, and deployment options than ever before for enterprises and colocation facilities everywhere in the world."

Kevin Brown, SVP of EcoStruxure Solutions, Secure Power, Schneider Electric

Schneider Electric has invested in EcoStruxure IT since legacy DCIM software was not designed with all of these considerations in mind. It modernizes IT physical infrastructure monitoring, management, planning, and modeling, with on-premise and cloud-based deployment choices to support hybrid, distributed IT environments ranging from a few to hundreds of sites globally.

"The IT infrastructure landscape is undergoing significant transformation as it evolves from individual data centres to distributed, hybrid IT, and it demands more than what we think of as 'traditional DCIM' to ensure it is resilient, secure, and sustainable," said Industry Consultant David Cappuccio. "EcoStruxure IT is helping to simplify the complexity of sprawling IT architecture and modernise it for both current and future needs."

Schneider Electric has formed a bespoke solutions team comprising of qualified engineers who do unique integrations worldwide to maximize a customer's experience with EcoStruxure IT. This one-of-a-kind team delivers all of the resources and competencies required for a successful EcoStruxure IT deployment.

Customers worldwide can sign up for an EcoStruxure IT account and experience the software and security evaluation for free for 30 days.
