Entuity Green IT Module First to Quantify Network's Contribution to Business Sustainability Initiatives
Entuity® today unveils Green IT Perspective™, the industry’s first-ever network management solution focused on Green IT for use with its award-winning Eye of the Storm® (EYE). Green IT Perspective quantifies operational costs and savings opportunities for network devices, servers, and workstations in any green business initiative. A customizable dashboard and integration point for policies, reports, reference materials, real-time statistics, communities, wikis, and other materials keeps employees knowledgeable and green initiatives on track.

Green IT Perspective helps customers manage complicated IT configurations with fewer resources to minimize wasted energy across the network. With rapidly increasing energy costs and mounting pressure to minimize their company’s carbon footprint, IT administrators are searching for solutions to reduce network inefficiencies. Green IT Perspective coupled with Eye of the Storm provides an intelligent network management solution that rates and identifies power consumption and utilization of physical devices, servers, and workstations enabling operations personnel to efficiently and effectively allocate both physical and virtual resources.

Green IT Perspective Product Features

  • Power Rating – Proactively ranks network devices based on energy consumption, enabling users to make intelligent decisions for replacing outdated or wasteful devices.
  • Underutilized Servers – Bolsters virtualization by identifying the operating characteristics of servers, providing insight into inefficiencies within the operational signatures and empowering IT departments to take on new enterprise applications or reallocate resources to maximize current inventories.
  • Green Dashboard – Provides users a community-driven integration point with a heads-up display of real-time information based on personalization of different green information resources, allowing users to mix and match data to create versatile reports that address business needs.
  • Shutdown Policy Conformance – Enables IT departments to monitor which departments are enforcing, and ignoring, shutdown policies and their associated costs to the company.

Availability

Green IT Perspective is a no-cost addition to EYE 2009 available at the end of November, and runs on Microsoft® Windows Server® 2003, Sun™ Solaris™, Red Hat® Enterprise Linux®, and VMWare® ESX Server. Entuity is actively seeking channel partners globally who are looking to complement their current framework or elemental tools offerings with the scalable, easy-to-deploy EYE 2009 management suite.
