Emerson Network Power has been recognized as a dominant supplier in data center infrastructure management (DCIM) by Forrester Research Inc. Forrester's March 2012: "Market Overview: Data Center Infrastructure Management Solutions" report identifies Emerson Network Power as one of two companies that dominates the DCIM supplier landscape within the data center facility and infrastructure market as it exists today. The report highlights Emerson Network Power's Trellis platform, a real-time infrastructure optimization platform that enables the unified management of data center IT and facilities infrastructure. The report also identifies Emerson Network Power as a traditional power and cooling system vendor that has tight integration with the infrastructure side of the data center and offers very high-capacity data collection capabilities. The report also points out that only a few vendors, including Emerson Network Power, offer any kind of network capacity planning capabilities beyond simple inventories of ports.
Steve Hassell, President, Avocent business, Emerson Network Power said, "Our strategy is to deliver a DCIM solution that breaks down organizational silos and enables real-time infrastructure optimization. The Trellis platform makes that vision a reality and it is gratifying to see our strategy and vision recognized by the experts at Forrester."
