Newtech sharpens its competitive edge by unveiling the all-inclusive and flexible iNAV DCIM system to help data centers tackle diverse challenges

HONG KONG, May 3, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Data centers nowadays are the core of most businesses but finding suitable software to manage one is not an easy task, especially when different industries have different requirements. Capitalizing on 27 years of experience in data center management, Newtech Technology Company Limited has launched the proprietary iNAV system -- a Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software that caters to all.

How does iNAV work? The application is made up of eight modules including Asset, Rack Capacity, Change, Network, Energy, Power Quality, Main Plant and Environment Management. Devices within each segment are showcased in a 3D format on screen for easy monitoring. Robust support is provided via iNAV to bridge the gap between IT and facilities management. The combination of modules can be customized according to individual company's need. iNAV is compatible with third party software ensuring a smooth transfer of data during the integration process.

The Asset Management module monitors a data center's IT equipment through online inventory stock taking and display of each IT equipment's allocation and utilization, including the machine's brand, model, host name, and operating system. This module is also capable of providing U-Level Asset Management to monitor unauthorized changes through a Smart Rack Tag.

Rack Capacity Management plans and optimizes infrastructure to match the data center's capabilities. Customers will be able to view fine details including rack space, power, and cooling consumption of each machine via a click of the mouse.

The third main module - Change Management - fully integrates workflow management for the change of IT equipment including creating work orders through the Submit - Approve - Action procedure. This module also enables the generation of tasks to move, add or change IT equipment automatically.

Network Management provides an overview of a data center's network paths and their interconnections, and provides guided input to reduce human error, while Energy, Power Quality, Main Plant and Environment Management monitors the surroundings of the center to ensure the effective smooth-running of the facility.

iNAV also offers advanced features in addition to the basic eight modules, such as Cable Management. This module implements, manages and maintains structured cabling systems for copper, fiber-optic or coaxial-cable networks, offering a comprehensive and detailed documentation, labelling, records, drawings, work orders, reports, and other administrative functions of the cabling networks.

"There are different DCIM solutions on the market but what makes iNAV stand out is not only its flexibility and extensive coverage provided via the eight modules but also it caters to your every specific need. Our solution provides automatic daily, weekly and monthly reports to ensure management is up-to-date with all that is happening within their data centers," says Charles Lee, Founder and Managing Director of Newtech.

Interested companies will be able to view the iNAV DCIM system at booth K22 inside Data Centre World from May 22-23, 2019.
