AixBOMS as an Ecosystem

How from the definition of DCIM 4.0 apparent, there is a need to implement a sustainable data centre infrastructure the networking of digital systems with intelligent character.


More and more frequently, the term is also found in this context of Ecosystems which on the one hand includes the characteristic of data exchange and orchestration of systems and processes, and on the other hand proceeds with a target orientation along the value chains.

 

Already with the initial development of AixBOMS from 2001 do we have the terms „Expert system“ and „IX – iIntelligence Next Generation“ shaped, which should express both the character of the highly technical, specialised application layer and the intelligent system interventions in the customer's IT landscape – thus meeting the demands of ecosystems.
