MergePoint Infrastructure Explorer Software

Infrastructure Explorer is designed as an easy-to-use visual model of a working data center; the design as an active system ensures more accurate and reliable data on the infrastructure.
 

Plan view illustrates critical information on the data center, providing an overview of capacities and potential issues. The usual spreadsheet model becomes out of date shortly after completing an inventory as it is a passive data log and not used as a daily tool for planning and design of the data center.

Mid-to-large sized businesses will benefit from accurate information that is in a usable model, meaning that it can easily be kept up to date.

Being out of space or out of power are factors of what IT believes is being used verses what is actually available.  Devices are no longer used but still in racks. There are power ports open on a PDU but the max power supported is already being pulled by other devices.  How full will the new data center be at opening?

Virtually move and alter data center layouts from the floor to the rack to the individual component, then see what effects those changes have.
MANAGE The insight you need to reduce risk 

Validation, reconciliation, and aggregation of data from multiple heterogeneous sources into a central asset repository.  
Quickly assess the state of IT, with information such as power and HVAC utilization.
PLAN The power to visualize what if

KNOW The authority you need to command all your assets.

Avocents MergePoint Infrastructure Explorer can also leverage the power of Avocents management software, DSview 3 and the associated infrastructure hardware (access and control, power and serial device management). No other vendor offers the combination of robust data center planning, change management and integration with Avocents active infrastructure products.

MergePoint Infrastructure Explorer provides data center managers a solution to quickly assess current assets, including power and HVAC utilization, and visualize changes in real-time to accommodate new technology (e.g. virtualization) and changes in infrastructure configuration.

Data center managers wrestle daily with how to do more with less including reducing costs and managing rapid change with fewer resources. In a complex infrastructure environment, this is a daunting task without information and tools to speed analysis and guide action. Avocents MergePoint Infrastructure Explorer offers data center managers both.
