Ericsson signed a strategic alliance agreement with ABB to transform how data center resources are architected, optimized and managed.
The alliance will bring together ABB's Decathlon for Data Centers - a data center infrastructure management (DCIM) system - with the Ericsson Cloud System. Data center operators will be able to automate and govern operations across not only compute, storage, network hardware and software - but also power, cooling and other IT management systems.
ABB’s alliance with Ericsson extends the automation of physical, mechanical and electrical infrastructure to the heart of IT workload management.
