APC's InfraStruXure Central, Capacity Manager and Change Manager are the next evolution of its Datacenter Physical Infrastructure Management suite of applications. The suite consists of design, operations and monitoring capabilities providing comprehensive management of the datacenter physical infrastructure.

For the first time, APC's InfraStruXure Central supports multi-vendor physical infrastructure equipment including a formal validation program to actively develop and publish support for non-APC equipment. Detailed information of all physical infrastructure devices can now be consolidated in this one monitoring application enabling quick assessment and intelligent decision-making on issues threatening IT system availability. APC's Change Manager application provides inventory management and workflow tools to enable data center operators to map the IT and physical infrastructure equipment that is located within the data center. When combined with Capacity Manager, these applications provide data center operators the ability to perform predictive simulation and modeling of the physical infrastructure – evaluating 'what-if' scenarios before they occur.

Growing trends toward higher power densities, driven by technology such as virtualization, demand the need for data center operators to seamlessly move between monitor, design and operate activities. APC's new datacenter management suite provides all of this functionality from a 'single console' guaranteeing operators are working from the most current data.

APC's datacenter management suite includes the following enhancements:

· Scalable to 4025 Devices – on a public or private network

· Multi-Vendor Support

· Design recommendation engine based industry best practices

· Placement advisor for IT equipment

· Comprehensive power path mapping

· New low cost entry level platform

· 3-Phase UPS load balancing and analysis

· New interface with user defined charts and graphs

· Localized in 10 Languages

· Mass configuration and firmware updates for APC devices

· Optional surveillance application for increased visibility in the data center

InfraStruXure Central ships as an appliance available at three price points each with increasing scalability. All appliances are pre-loaded with Change Manager and Capacity Manager modules, which users enable by purchasing license keys. APC also provides a complete set of services to support customers; including installation, deployment, configuration, and consulting services. Specialized training and education services are also available. All applications are currently available worldwide.
