Data Center Management Systems and Methods for Compute Density Efficiency Measurements

In a data center infrastructure management (DCIM) system comprising a processing unit coupled to a memory element, and having instructions encoded thereon, a method comprising:

• over a network, collecting data center compute systems, power systems, and facility systems data;
• triggering an action based on a diagnosed or predicted condition of the collected compute systems, power systems and facility systems;
• controlling via a compute, power, and facilities module, the compute systems, power systems and facility systems in the data center;
• wherein the controlling via the compute, power, and facilities module comprises calibrating the compute, power, and facility systems based on an estimated compute requirement, and an associated power, cooling, and network data resource requirement;
• and wherein the estimated compute requirement comprises estimating compute density per real-time power wattage, and storage density per real-time power wattage.

A Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) system configured to:

• setup a metric which is crucial to the operation of the data center infrastructure;
• collect the exact data from the data center, over the network;
• trigger the processor to make the judgment according to the data stored in the storage, whether zero or more adjustment needs to be made;
• and
• maximize the performance of the data center via the adjustment.
