What does AixBOMS offer beyond measurements for electricity and climate?

The development of AixBOMS began as a cable documentation system at a time when DCIM was not yet a topic. Gradually, it has evolved into software for infrastructure management in service-oriented network and data centre operations.

 

When managing power and climate infrastructure, you can benefit from these tried and tested views and methods. The underlying data model allows for the documentation of relationships between data and objects from different contexts. These are also understood and intelligently evaluated by the existing graphic editors and analysis tools. You also benefit from the ability to link your power and climate data with information from other management areas, and thus, for example, to take the necessary measures to rectify faults and weaknesses after an impact analysis. This can also be supplemented with monitoring information and thus become a powerful tool for your event management.

 

The planning mode in RackView, Area Plan and Floor Plan for cabling, cabinet and room management can graphically make changes to the climate and power infrastructure. Furthermore, it can generate the necessary work orders for workflow management and, if necessary, efficiently perform mass operations for them.






Another unique selling point of AixBOMS is the depth of its documentation, which goes down to port level and can, for example, manage intelligent power sockets. Connection to IP address management for the allocation of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses is becoming increasingly important. Through the diverse integration options of and into AixBOMS, you can even make your infrastructure data available to other systems in real-time.

 

Due to the many special properties such as

  • the generic and holistic development approach,
  • openness,
  • the integration possibilities,
  • the included workflow engine,
  • the coverage of essential management disciplines, …

AixBOMS has evolved from a purely passive documentation system into a control instance for the IT management landscape, which today shapes the entire network and data centre operations in many places. Tools such as wizards and editors, but also complex management functions like the Integration Engine Light or the Workflow Engine, are available to all integrated disciplines. Depending on the focus, the addition of AixBOMS' own applications for special application areas or the integration of customer-specific/third-party software is possible.
