In order to vastly improve the productivity of data centers, DCMs are using application-based solutions as well as physical tools. On the application side, data center infrastructure management (DCIM) systems provide a unified, real-time picture of data center operations, enabling IT teams to match resources with demand. With hardware changes and servers a regular occurrence that can eat away at productivity, server-handling devices and server handling standards are crucial to enabling increased productivity.
当今的数据中心是由虚拟机，存储区域网络和基于云的应用程序组成的IT环境。尽管这些方法可以简化计算和监视操作，但它们仍然需要一个能够对所有虚拟和物理资产进行全面管理的系统。这意味着拥有一项能够超越计算系统管理范围来满足环境和功耗考虑需求的技术。 DCIM系统通常与管理工具集成在一起，使管理员可以在基础架构级别监视动态IT环境，从而使他们可以了解电源利用率和散热需求。
另外，DCIM解决方案允许跟踪重定位中的各个步骤，以便不同的组能够报告其各个任务的状态，以验证是否已完成所有必需的步骤。在这种情况下，工作流程功能将协调服务器的安装步骤，以便在技术人员将服务器安装到机架中之前完成所有准备工作，从而简化整个过程。
It’s still the case that many data centers lack a set of standards for handling servers and other rack-mounted equipment. To ensure safety as well as improve data center productivity, DCMs are implementing standardized methods and practices for handling IT equipment in a data center environment. This has made advanced server equipment solutions such as modern data center lifts an integral part of that goal.
通过这两个工具来协调数据中心管理的运营，环境和物理方面的能力已成为将生产率提高三位数的基础。与往常一样，数据中心的工作人员是实现目标最大化使用量的关键。
