Perspectives

Vigilent intelligent energy management systems deliver rapid results to data centers and large, commercial buildings looking to get the most out of their cooling resources. Built around a sophisticated artificial intelligence engine, these systems provide you with an unsurpassed level of power and control to ensure that you not only have the information you need, but a tool to optimize the return you're looking for from your facility's activities.

A CFO's Perspective

Unmanaged cooling resources are a direct – and negative – hit to your bottom line. It's like driving your car with the air conditioning on full blast and all of the windows open. Yet, until now, that's how most facilities have been run – open loop with no feedback and no control.

Vigilent gives you the tools to change all that, and convert cooling into a managed resource, while at the same time delivering you up to 50% or more savings on your cooling expenses. Find out how you can start saving today. Read more...

A Facilities Management Perspective

Balancing the needs of occupant comfort while trying to get escalating cooling and heating costs under control can be a difficult task to accomplish. It's particularly a challenge when dealing with issues associated with older buildings, constructed during a time when energy was cheap and conservation not a consideration. And retrofits, when implemented, can often be costly and extremely disruptive to the work environment.

An energy management system from Vigilent can provide you with an instant solution to these challenges, however. Using wireless networking technology, deployment is fast, easy and non-disruptive. Interfacing directly with your air-handling units, they'll start delivering you rapid energy savings almost immediately, while maintaining the level of tenant comfort you need. Learn more about how our systems can put you in control of your important cooling resources. Read more...

An IT Manager's Perspective

Optimizing uptime is paramount in importance for any data center, and overheating servers can quickly bring a facility to its knees in a domino effect of collapse when limits have been exceeded. The solution has often been to throw one CRAC after another at the job of cooling, in what turns out to be the misguided hope that more air blowing faster and colder is the answer.

You might be surprised to find that your existing cooling resources are likely to deliver you the capacity you already need, and that sometimes throttling back their output can counter-intuitively reduce overall temperatures. Vigilent artificial intelligence technology can automatically and constantly optimize your cooling resources, while delivering you the headroom you need for a resilient facility. Find out how you can do all that, and reduce your overall energy costs today. Read more...
