Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) deals with the Management of all the IT Configuration Items in the data center, from floor space, through the rack elevation configuration, to devices and subcomponents within those devices. Power and cooling management, as well as “what if” scenarios are in the domain of DCIM. With netTerrain, organizations have the ability to visualize, search, manage and track all aspects of the Physical layout and configuration of the Data Center:
Data Center Space and IT Capacity Management
Organizations have the ability to manage data  centers in a hierarchical fashion using drill-down capabilities and customize attributes for location information, such as Regions, Sites, Buildings, Floors, and Rooms for multiple data centers.
- Cabinet and Floor Space Management: Configure data center floor space and cabinet utilization space within all data centers
- Rack Space Management: Rack mounted equipment placement, rack space occupancy and management of free rack space, heat, power, and weight requirements.
- Software/Application Management: CRUD (create, update, delete) operations for software and applications. By associating software licenses to an asset, organizations can map applications to systems to support CMDB-style relationships between assets and applications.
Smart Cabinet and Rack Management
netTerrain can manage Space, Power, Connectivity at the rack/cabinet level. netTerrain's smart rack unit placement utility automates the positioning of devices and ensures that all equipment is mounted properly based on cabinet occupancy rates and device dimensions
- Take advantage of dynamic, color-coded displays of racks and cabinets by occupancy, power usage or any other attribute
- Visualize equipment with vendor specific icons. Icons are assigned automatically based on library data of selected make and model
- Automate rack placement and ensure consistent equipment positioning
- Real-time and aggregate statistics for cabinets and racks
- Filtering of information based on user-defined criteria
