The 451 Group has named Sentilla a "Supplier to Watch" in their recent DCIM report by Andy Lawrence and John Stanley.  We are honored for 451 to recognize Sentilla's leadership in data center analytics software, including energy management and performance optimization.  The 451 Group includes Tier 1 Research, The Info Pro, and the Uptime Institute.

According to the 451 Group report, "Sentilla’s Energy Manager actually focuses on more than energy – it covers environmental data collection and reporting. It also reads IT utilization data, enabling it to model and identify opportunities to reduce waste in space, cooling and power, and to spot underutilized IT capacity. The company is well connected and innovative."

"As datacenters become bigger, denser and more complex, it is clear that the most adaptable, economically sustainable and eco-efficient facilities will be those using advanced infrastructure management software. The three main drivers of investment in DCIM software are economics – mainly through energy-related cost savings – improved availability, and improved manageability and flexibility," said Andy Lawrence, Research Director with The 451 Group.

Sentilla is the only IT management software that treats data centers like factories, providing granular, real-time data with a 360 degree view across the full infrastructure footprint -- including servers, storage, switches, cooling and power infrastructure, and even applications and virtual machines.  With Sentilla's factory IT model, enterprises can transition from being reactive to proactive about data center planning and projects, thereby maximize capacity and productivity at the lowest possible cost.
