Manage and optimize the performance of your distributed infrastructure
The cost of unplanned downtime is huge—often resulting in significant financial losses and damaged reputation.
Our Distributed IT Performance Management (DITPM) software, part of our Brightlayer Data Centers suite, helps IT, data center and facility managers for distributed IT environments, such as retail stores; healthcare, educational, and government facilities; and edge data centers manage and optimize the performance of their equipment—typically with 25* or more uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) and/or power distribution units (PDUs)—regardless of their physical location. It also provides the insights needed to identify and fix issues before equipment goes down, so you can prevent costly downtime.
*Our Disaster Avoidance software can monitor and manage power equipment in distributed IT environments with fewer than 25 UPSs and/or UPSs.
“Before DITPM, we would only know if our network was down. We’d have no idea what the issue was. Now we get notifications, and we can see if there is a power problem or if it’s something else. Considering that some schools are 30 miles from our office, it is a tremendous time-saver not having to send IT personnel out to the site.”
If you purchase Distributed IT Performance Management software and decide later that you'd like to use the same software to manage your edge sites and your core data center, it's an easy upgrade to our Data Center Performance Management software—no need to migrate data or integrate multiple software applications. Our single digital platform will evolve with your needs.
