Spook Limited Real-time remote monitoring from global consumption to granular monitoring at asset level, all can be achieved easily with Spook's award winning remote monitoring service, OmniWatch.

There is little non-domestic customers can do to change the unit cost of energy but energy managers are able to evaluate and implement changes to make energy consumption more efficient with https://spook.co.uk/monitoring/utility-monitoring.

Commercial energy prices along with residential tariffs have risen at eye watering levels. And with commercial organisations not having a price cap guarantee the topic of PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) and DCiE (Data Centre Infrastructure Efficiency) has become more acute in recent weeks.

MONITORING SPECIALISTS
Spook's award winning remote monitoring service called OmniWatch measures realtime efficiency levels within data centres. Measuring PUE and DCiE; OmniWatch presents efficiency readings in an easy to use real-time digital dashboard.

THE BENEFITS OF PUE & DCiE MONITORING
Knowing what the efficiency figures are in realtime allows users to highlight areas for improvement in order to to achieve better ratings.

The objective is to ensure that the maximum possible percentage of power utilised in a data centre is actually used by IT equipment and the minimum by supporting equipment such as AC units and other peripheral equipment.

Understanding PUE and DCiE is only the beginning. Efficiency gains should be regularly calculated, preferably in realtime. By doing this users can check how well they are doing on different days of the week, month and year.

The longer the period of analysis the better understanding of efficiency gains. This is particularly important as it identifies equipment overheads that may be missed if the measurements are made infrequently.

OmniWatch stores all readings in real-time and in perpetuity making long term analysis easy.

EUROPEAN CODE OF CONDUCT FOR DATA CENTRES
Spook is an approved Endorser of the European Code of Conduct for Data Centres.

The Data Centres Energy Efficiency Code of Conduct was established some years ago in response to increasing energy consumption in data centres and the need to reduce the related environmental, economic and energy supplies.

The aim is to inform and stimulate data centre operators and owners to reduce energy consumption in a cost-effective manner without impacting the mission critical function of data center facility.

The Code of Conduct aims to achieve this by improving the understanding of energy demand within the data centre, raising awareness and recommending energy efficient best practice and targets.

Don't wait for a problem to occur before installing remote monitoring.

The best time to embark on remote IT room monitoring is to install it in advance of needing it. So it’s important to plan ahead.

This year Christmas day, Boxing day and New Years day all fall on weekends pushing the bank holidays to weekdays. Therefore, the last 2 weeks of December has only a few days in terms of normal working hours for IT staff. Remote monitoring is hugely beneficial to ensure IT uptime for websites and other critical services for staff and internet surfers alike that expect organisational services including websites to continue, error free, during the festive period.

OmniWatch is Spook's remote monitoring software solution. Designed to be the central repository for all things monitored; OmniWatch is the professionals first choice for monitoring the broadest range of sensors and equipment types.

Most climate monitors have on-board data loggers. Often the collected readings have a limited shelf life of between 30 and 60 days before falling off the data horizon; and reading are usually hard to access, download and understand.

OmniWatch sensor and data readings are held in perpetuity; providing accurate historical trend analysis for a unique user insight. Understanding and providing accurate historical measurements over long periods of time is hugely beneficial.
