Integrated Data Center Management Architectural Guide
Integrated Data Center Management (IDCM) is deep integration between data center critical facilities infrastructure, the resources (e.g., servers, switches, assets, etc.) within the data center, and the application workloads running there. IDCM’s most simplistic description would be the integration between Building Management Systems (BMS), also referred to as Building Automation Systems (BAS), DCIM solutions, and IT operations – yet the vision of IDCM is much more than that description captures.
