Moxa is a leading provider of edge connectivity, industrial computing, and network infrastructure solutions for enabling connectivity for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
To further optimize energy efficiency, the cooling requirements of the servers must be calculated and controlled precisely. However, a better understanding of the drastic fluctuating variables, because of the varying levels of computing needs and the surrounding temperatures and humidity, is necessary to accurately predict the energy required.
To optimize energy consumption and allow a DCI system, for example, to make automatic adjustments based on AI calculations, OT data from various systems, such as Electrical Power Management system (EPMS), Building Management System (BMS), Power SCADA, etc., must be integrated into the Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM). This allows IT staff to get a more precise view of all the subsystems in the data center while avoiding PUE distortion. Having the ability to see the system in its entirety helps shorten reaction times if problems occur, thus minimizing maintenance risks.
