Agility

Localization - User interface available in major local languages; English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese & Italian.
Optional deployment services - Ensure speedy deployment through the use of Schneider Electric Professional Services.
Shared data model - Ensure mature and synchronized data throughout the entire data center life cycle.

Availability

Measured power data - Prevent overloads through graphical display of average and peak power usage by measuring actual consumption through metered rack PDUs and branch circuit monitoring.
Available Capacity - Global view of available capacity within an organizational context, providing an instant calculation of actual space, power and cooling consumption, power and network port availability and floor and rack weight limits against overall data center capacity constraints.
U-space report - Provides a quick overview of available U-space within your data center.
Capacity policies - Group IT equipment to match availability needs and avoid stranded space, power and cooling capacity.
Keyword tagging - Highlight location constraints through keyword tagging of data center racks or equipment, for both technical and business-level categorization of assets.
Power dependency path - Map the power path and physical system relationships and dependencies, providing detailed overview of electrical distribution and phase balancing for a detailed impact analysis.
Direct Current - Offer direct current capacity planning and risk management as well as the ability to support a mixed power infrastructure (both AC and DC). This enables data center managers to model DC-powered devices within their data center, allowing them to more intelligently and accurately plan capacity and assess risk for the DC power path.
Electrical room support - Monitor capacity and plan changes for centralized power equipment in areas outside of the main data center floor plan.

Manageability

Global asset search - Quickly locate assets through free text search, and export equipment data to excel format.
Live dashboard - Gain transparency to data center key performance indicators through easily configured web dashboards, displaying customizable management-level information.
Vendor neutral - Allows for modeling equipment and data from any vendor, providing support for existing data center environments.
Custom devices - Quickly customize library assets to your specifications in just 2 clicks, amending custom properties such as power requirements and MAC address etc.
Asset library - Utilize the extensive catalog of physical infrastructure and IT devices from leading vendors.

Planning

Raised floor environments - Gain an instant overview of the plenum air velocities and airflow rates for optimal positioning of perforated tiles in rooms with raised floor cooling systems pressure.
Capture Index - Instantly visualize the dynamics of the data center airflow through the hot and cold aisle Capture Index (CI), providing real-time analysis of how effectively the supplied air is used.
Simulation of device failures - Enables data center operators to proactively identify how a device failure will impact business critical applications and maintain redundancy during maintenance.
Business impact - Shows the consequence of device failure on data center infrastructure equipment for instant identification of critical business application impacts.
Infrastructure failure to IT impact - Critical events are translated into server impact analysis, and virtual machines at risk are automatically migrated to healthy hosts.
IT equipment guidance - Instant server placement recommendation through real-time analysis of available data center capacity, including power, cooling, u-space, network and power ports, capacity strategies, weight limits and more.
Capacity reports - Shows planned and actual power data in one view, enabling detailed capacity planning for future power needs
3D airflow analysis - Simulate any cooling scenario in your data center, instantly visualizing the cooling effect on your infrastructure for easy identification of overcooling and hotspots..
3-phase load balancing - Automatically distribute and track single and three-phase equipment power draw from UPS power supply, through distribution down to server and blade level ensuring all three phases on the power system carry a balanced load.
Scenario analysis - Try out future data center changes and view the impact, without making any changes to their live StruxureWare Data Center Operation application.

Protection

Multi-user access - Enables several users to carry out work on the application simultaneously and merging changes from different users seamlessly.
User roles - Enable location and feature-based access through multi-user login and individual levels of user roles.
Read-only Access - Share access without risking unauthorized configuration changes.
Password security - User-selectable password with strong password rules and reset password mechanism.
