A Proven Secure Solution

DataCentreManager is based around the iServe communications server, a powerful data gathering engine that can communicate across a wide range of network and hardware platforms using generic and proprietary protocols to establish ‘real-time', ‘bi-directional' communications with the intelligent power monitoring, environmental and life safety systems infrastructure of your premises.

The iServe communications server architecture has been developed in such a way to provide ‘plug-in' capability for applications that wish to gather information from connected systems.These applications are known as ‘Plug-Ins'.

Many of these ‘Plug-Ins' were developed for specific tasks - such as that used to monitor the Intelligent Power Monitoring Units. Others tasks include alarm handling, Data Logging, displaying and adjusting values from main power generation and HVAC plant.

The Sensorium iBMS DataCentreManager operates on open standards - For example the Graphical User Interface is created using HTML and based around Internet Explorer, Microsoft Active Directory provides the security environment and the Client-Server communications are based on the telnet protocol. In fact, Sensorium makes extensive use of existing software, network and hardware standards to achieve integration without “reinventing the wheel”.

The DataCentreManager web pages are constructed using industry standard web-authoring software by application engineers skilled in intelligent control and monitoring systems. Pages are branded to suite client's requirements and designed to in-house standards defined through experience.

Data is automatically collected and archived into a database, normally Microsoft's SQL or Access, in formats that allow data mining and report generation from third party applications (Crystal Reports, Aperture etc)
