Power Management Software

Power Management Software provides centralised monitoring and management of power supply within an IT infrastructure. It is commonly used with uninterruptible power supplies, intelligent Power Distribution Units and other power management systems. The software can monitor operating status, battery capacity, power consumption, voltage and available runtime and generate alerts when predefined conditions occur. During an extended power outage, supported solutions can initiate automated actions such as the controlled shutdown of servers, virtual machines and other IT systems. Depending on the functionality, additional features may include event logging, remote management, notifications and energy consumption reporting. Power Management Software is particularly relevant in server rooms and data centres, where it supports operational reliability, availability and the controlled shutdown of business-critical IT infrastructure.
