Emerson Network Power simplifies
integration of its Data Center
Infrastructure Management (DCIM)
“The value of DCIM depends on its ability to aggregate
large amounts of real-time data from all areas of the
data center,” said Jennifer Koppy, research director,
IDC. “APIs that enable the interoperation of functions
between many different sources of data and manage-
ment solutions are essential to a successful DCIM im-
plementation.”
APIs within the Trellis platform enable it to speak to
applications such as business management systems,
web applications and mobile devices. These APIs help
open bi-directional access to data across platforms and
systems and allow IT to accurately allocate cost by line-
of-business or customer. This communication allows
critical data to be accurately collected and stored in the
