Implementation of Nlyte DCIM Solution at Computacenter

This case study details the implementation of the Nlyte Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) solution at Computacenter, a leading provider of IT infrastructure services in Europe. The document outlines the challenges faced by Computacenter, particularly in integrating the data centers of a newly acquired company, Digica, which lacked effective management systems. The decision-making process led to the selection of Nlyte due to its ease of use and integration capabilities. The implementation was carried out in Computacenter's Manchester data center, with staff managing the process after training. Significant benefits were realized, including reduced audit times from three weeks to less than one week, improved data accuracy, and enhanced power management. The Nlyte solution enabled Computacenter to provide tailored services to customers, including precise power usage billing. The case study concludes with insights on the importance of adopting both the DCIM solution and the necessary organizational processes for successful implementation.
