CenterOS Capacity Management
Auckland, New Zealand
What it is
CenterOS Capacity Management gives data center teams a graphical way to view racks, rooms, and resources while managing space, power, and cooling. It tracks power, cooling, space, weight, connectivity, and compute, and allows custom capacity dimensions. Users can inspect rack elevations and model installations, moves, or decommissioning before work begins. Equipment templates can fill in vendor specifications such as power draw, heat output, weight, dimensions, and rack space. The platform lists SNMP, Modbus, BACnet, MQTT, IPMI, and Prometheus among its monitoring protocols, and can import estate data from spreadsheets, NetBox, Ralph, or legacy DCIM systems. Deployment choices include multi-tenant SaaS, dedicated private cloud, and sovereign on-premises operation, including air-gapped environments. CenterOS says that sovereign deployments keep AI inference within the customer boundary. Its AI can answer plain-English questions, plan capacity, and correlate incidents, while agent proposals require human approval. Field-level audit trails and replayable state-change events are also described. Pricing is available on request.
