Spring is right around the corner (and, according to Punxsutawney Phil, an early one is expected!), which means now is the best possible time to start taking a look at your data center’s maintenance schedule if you have not already. 

 

Data center maintenance is crucial to ensuring your system stays up and running without interruptions. Fortunately, data center infrastructure management (DCIM) software can help make your spring cleaning a breeze.

 

Optimize Your Power Capacity

 

One of the key elements of spring cleaning is refreshing your property, and the same is true for your data center. DCIM software enables you to optimize your data center’s power capacity by collecting information on cooling and power, consumption of resources in specific areas, and resource growth patterns. 

 

With this data at your disposal, you can better optimize your data center’s power capacity and efficiency, which can help you save money and reduce your carbon footprint.

 

Reduce Unexpected Downtime

 

Unexpected downtime is a common threat that data center services experience. DCIM software allows you to receive alerts before failures happen, so you can be better prepared and prevent accidents. 

 

When used in tandem with uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, you can rest assured that your data center services are as secure as possible.

 

Keep Air Conditioning in Great Shape

 

According to Statista, the IT spending on data center services worldwide was $222 billion in 2023. Much of that spending goes toward data center supplies like air conditioning, which is necessary for preventing servers from overheating. Maintaining your data center’s air conditioning systems is a crucial part of spring cleaning and can help to reduce downtime, unexpected power failures, high energy bills, and more. 

 

DCIM software allows you to track data on your center’s cooling systems, so you can keep a better eye on which systems need your immediate attention and which ones will need to be maintained or repaired next.
