Simulation, planning, and optimisation of infrastructure
capacities to right-size the data centre.

Improve your energy and cost efficiencies, supporting short- and long-term planning, forecasting, and budgeting,
with APC InfraStruxure management software portfolio from Vohkus.

Plan and optimise the utilisation of your actual physical infrastructure capacities, via a shared data centre model,
enabling efficient equipment provisioning and right-sizing of your data centre.

InfraStruxure Capacity predicts the optimal location for your physical infrastructure and rack-based IT equipment,
based on the availability and requirements of physical infrastructure capacity; and user defined requirements such
as redundancy, network and business use grouping.

It reduces stranded capacity through optimised use of the physical infrastructure and avoids unplanned downtime.
With its sophisticated simulation based on live data, InfraStruxure Capacity proactively analyses the impact of
changes before they occur, enabling informed decision making and planning, ensuring that your physical
infrastructure provides the required capacity for current and future needs.

Features & Benefits

PHYSICAL EQUIPMENT PLANNING	Quickly locate the optimum spot for that next server based on physical infrastructure needs.
POWER FAILURE TO IT IMPACT	Critical events are translated into server impact analysis, and virtual machines at risk are automatically migrated
BUSINESS IMPACT	Shows the consequence of device failure on rack-based equipment for instant identification of critical business application impacts.
SIMULATION OF DEVICE FAILURES	Enables data centre operators to proactively identify how a device failure will impact business critical applications.
DATA CENTRE LAB	Allows customers to try out future data centre changes and view the impact, without making any changes to their live InfraStruxure Operations application.
3-PHASE LOAD BALANCING	Automatically distribute and track single and three-phase equipment power draw, ensuring all three phases on the power system carry a balanced load.
POWER DEPENDENCY PATH	Map the power path and physical system relationships and dependencies.
AIRFLOW ANALYSIS	Simulate any cooling scenario in your data centre, instantly visualising the cooling effect on your infrastructure.
CAPACITY REPORTS	Shows planned and actual power data in one view, enabling detailed planning of future power needs.

AVAILABLE CAPACITY	Understand available capacity by calculating actual space, power and cooling consumption, power and network port availability and floor and rack weight limits against data centre architecture constraints.
MEASURED POWER DATA	Prevent overloads through graphical display of average and peak power usage by measuring actual consumption through metered rack PDUs.
KEYWORD TAGGING	Highlight location constraints through keyword tagging of data centre racks or equipment.
U-SPACE REPORT	Provides a quick overview of available U-space within your data centre.
CAPACITY POLICIES	Group IT equipment to match availability needs and avoid stranded space, power and cooling capacity.
ELECTRICAL ROOM SUPPORT	Monitor capacity and plan changes for centralised power equipment in areas outside of the main data centre floor plan.
FLOOR AND RACK LOAD	Factors floor and rack weight limits when placing new equipment
PORT COUNT WEIGHTING	Recommends best location to install new IT equipment based on power port availability
