FieldView will help CoreSite drive data center efficiency with consolidated monitoring of power, cooling, and space inventory.
FieldView's software will also play a role in a larger technology transformation project underway at CoreSite, which is an attempt to link all of CoreSite’s business applications, including FieldView, into one integrated view.
“FieldView understands the importance of automated monitoring for the most effective DCIM practices,” said Sev Onyshkevych, Chief Marketing Officer, FieldView Solutions. “As a component of CoreSite’s system, our enterprise monitoring solution will drive efficiency across the data center and enable visibility and transparency around power, cooling, and infrastructure.”
Tight Integration for a "Single Pane" View
