AKCPro Server is a central management and monitoring software for all AKCP environmental monitoring appliances. AKCPro Server is a best-in-class data center infrastructure management software (DCIM) with a focus on temperature and airflow analysis.

With AKCPro Server you can manage and monitor all your all your AKCP environmental monitoring appliances and deployed sensors, intelligent PDU's, backup power systems from a single user interface. AKCPro Server also distributes firmware updates, configuration files and backup for your AKCP environmental monitoring appliances in the field.

AKCPro Server also provides 2D and 3D data center visualization with heat-maps, sensor constrained CFD and differential air pressures, rack mapping, capacity planning, asset tracking and more.

Access AKCPro Server user interface from any device such as a laptop, smartphone, Windows or Linux machine. All you need is a web browser (Google Chrome recommended). There are no apps to install or packages to download.

Data Center Monitoring and Optimization
Thermal risks in the data center must be monitored so they can be managed. Ensure 100% ASHRAE compliance at rack level, minimize downtime and increase equipment service life.
The second most common cause of unplanned data center downtime is failure to manage the thermal risks posed by overheating servers. Almost 1/3 of data center downtime can be traced to overheating. Due to this, many data centers mitigate the risks by overcooling, which results in wasted energy, increased carbon emissions and OpEx. With AKCP Thermal Map Sensors and AKCPro Server Heat-maps you can have the best of both worlds, identify hot spots and cold spots for optimal efficiency and lower PUE.

Real-Time Heat-Maps
2D heat-maps constantly update with sensor data at rack level. With each rack having 6 temperature sensors (3 at front and rear, top middle and bottom) hotspots, high rack inlet temperatures and incorrect ∆T's are quickly identified and alerted.

Identify Hotspots before They are a Problem
With AKCPro Server Heat-maps hotspots are identified. Visual and audible alarms can be raised, SNMP traps, E-mail and SMS can be sent. With full SNMP V1/2/3 compatability it easily integrates with existing NMS, BMS and DCIM software.

24/7/365 Thermal Optimization
Be pro-active with thermal management of your data center. Sense disaster and be put in control before critical infrastructure fails. As data center loads change identify areas of cost saving. Utilize sensors as an analysis tool not only for alerts.

Comply with ASHRAE and Uptime Institute
With sensors placed at each rack you can ensure 100% compliance with ASHRAE and Uptime Institutes recommended temperatures and sensor placement. Sensors reduce the risk of thermal shutdowns, which account for 1/3 of data center outages.

Capacity Planning
Plan where you can increase data center capacity. Find racks with available space, check for sufficient power and identify stranded capacity that is wasting energy.

Thermal Risk Monitoring
Protect IT equipment from high temperatures and monitor for hotspots in your racks. Meet ASHRAE recommendations for data center operating temperatures.

Efficient Energy Usage
Efficient use of cooling, check for cold spots in your data center. Areas that are over-cooled or under utilized. Improve your energy efficiency, reduce operational costs.

Realtime Insights
AKCPro Server DCIM provides realtime insights to data center performance metrics such as PUE. 2D and 3D heat-maps, ∆T and ∆P, humidity, security power and assets.

Monitoring
Fully SNMP compliant, AKCPro Server monitors third party devices virtual sensors. with AKCPro Server  you can integrate intelligent PDU's and UPS systems, monitor server loads and system uptime and, calculate live PUE.

AKCPro Server  supports monitoring of your data center environmental, power and security conditions. It offers SNMP V1/2/3 and Modbus TCP/IP support. with AKCPro Server  you can view all your deployed AKCP and third party sensors in one software.

• AKCP Sensors - Monitor all your AKCP sensors with AKCPro Server. Manage sensor thresholds, alerts and reports. Customizable desktops to display sensor data with gauges, graphs, rack mapping and data center visualization through 2D and 3D maps. Close integration to AKCP Thermal Map Sensors displays rack inlet, outlet and △T values for each of your racks. Identify hotspots and coldspots in your data center.

• Environmental - Protect IT equipment from high temperatures and monitor for hotspots in your racks. Meet ASHRAE recommendations for data center operating temperatures.

• Power - Monitor your data center power consumption at a global and rack level. Calculate PUE and see instantly how changes you make in your data center affect your PUE.

• Security - AKCPro Server monitors your data center security. Integration with our access control system and RFID swing handle locks. Control and monitor access to your facilities and infrastructure.

• Visualization - 2D and 3D data center visualization. Drill down mapping from a world view to individual sites, down to rack level. Quickly identify problem areas from an overview map of your data center.

* After 1 year, licenses will need to be purchased based on useage. Your AKCPro Server license page will show your usage, so you will know which licensed need to be purchased.
