Welcome to

Universal Intelligent

Infrastructure Management (UIIM)

UIIM aims to empower Infrastructure

and Operations (I&O) leaders and take

infrastructure management to a new level.

What

Is UIIM?

A practice, comprising methodologies and guidelines for effective and efficient federated data center infrastructure management

Why UIIM?

Why now?

There are myriad reasons for repositioning the concept of DCIM but chief among them is that data centers have never had a solution that delivered on the promise of effectively managing data center assets, resources and operational workflows.

How does UIIM

differ from DCIM?

UIIM is designed to provide a framework for a multi-faceted view of all the activity that is taking place in the data center facility including the basic space, power and cooling resources but far more as it integrates with the IT equipment and networks assets down to individual ports and cables.

Who

Needs It?

Data Center Operators

Are you looking for a better alternative to your current DCIM tools?

DCIM Software Partners

XpedITe is perfect for integrating market leading tools to manage data center operations.

MSPs

If you are looking for a way to add value to your offering for data center clients, look no further.

Facilities Management Companies

Managing the efficiency of infrastructure and operations can prove chaotic if there is no one single pain of glass tool!

Enterprise ESG and Energy Management Departments

XpedITe can support you and your team in achieving all aspects of governance, risk and compliance, including monitoring and management of ESG requirements.

UIIM is Universal

Data centers need comprehensive tools to orchestrate and optimize services and resources.

Universal Intelligent Infrastructure Management (UIIM) is a concept originated by RiT Tech to provide direction for a federated system that enables the integration of multiple software solutions and infrastructure management tools to provide I&O leaders with improved visibility of resource consumption, coherent management information and a single source of truth.

What Universal Intelligent Infrastructure Management delivers

Whether you are a data center manager, NOC manager, infrastructure or operations leader, this practice will bring together the data from all teams avoiding duplication of cost, effort and conflict.

In addition to the principles of DCIM, here are some of the advantages UIIM can provide:

360° View of Operations

Pinpointing issues to improve all metrics MTBF (mean time before failure), MTTR (mean time to recovery, repair, respond, or resolve), MTTF (mean time to failure), MTTA (mean time to acknowledge)… and more

Common Language and Methodologies

Which suit the data center environment and its administrators of tasks or updates

Mitigation of Risk

Avoiding duplicated effort and wasted human resource

Predictive Capabilities

To plan space, capacity, power and cooling for long term change

Preventative

Recommendations

New Paragraph

Automated Workflows

For on-prem, colo, cloud and hybrid environments. In addition to proactive automations to improve SLA and shorten time-to-service

What UIIM is NOT

UIIM does NOT refer to a single system addressing a narrow set of capabilities within a single layer of data center infrastructure.

UIIM will rely on data coming from multiple specialist systems
