
Proven. In FY2011 we earned US$38 billion in revenue with
135,000 employees in about 100 countries.

Committed. Publicly owned with HQ in Switzerland, ABB
formed in a 1988 merger of two engineering companies,
ASEA (Swedish) and Brown Boveri (Swiss), that were
founded in 1883 and 1891, respectively.

Decathlon™ Key Benefits
System availability and performance
Industrial-class visibility and performance
metering of both IT and facility systems, including
status change, energy consumption and
environmental data from any location.
Capacity planning and management
Maximize capacity of power, cooling and space
through optimized placement of IT assets,
‘current state’ and ‘future state’ resource capacity
planning, including what-if scenarios and data
center comparisons.
Resource forecasting and energy planning
Real-time energy market intelligence and
analytics to determine $/kWh, $/MW,
transactions/server, PAR4, PUE, carbon
emissions, and other data center metrics.
Facility & IT automation (dynamic data center)
Control technologies and process automation of
work flow, asset management, and automatic
demand response of facilities (e.g., power and
cooling) and IT (e.g., load shifting).
Troubleshooting and root cause analysis
Granular performance detail, including timestamping and occurrences of alerts and alarms,
for your entire data center operations.
