VDC plans to reduce energy consumption and operational costs while increasing reliability and availability of its data centers by using GE’s unified architecture.

GE’s PACSystems RX3i delivers high availability architecture for central plant control, data floor monitoring and control, battery room and UPS monitoring and switchgear control.

GE’s Proficy Historian supplies data capture to baseline data center performance enabling analysis and dash boarding of performance metrics like PUE, energy consumption, and overall carbon footprint.

The Proficy platform provides a graphical interface to control, manage and optimize data center performance with future enhancements like advanced energy analytics and asset management integrated into one system.

VDC will leverage GE’s system to get enhanced memory, speed and performance, built-in hardware redundancy, ease of use, minimized downtime and increase energy optimization

GE Intelligent Platforms vice president of control & communications systems Bernie Anger said that Vantage’s need for an integrated platform that facilitates control schemes to maximize energy efficiency and provide high availability is perfect match for GE’s solutions.
