GDCM is a global software company, developing commercial solutions for data center management, with offices in London, Stamford, Dallas, and San Diego.  Our software is allowing companies to intelligently manage power, forecast green house emissions, and optimize their critical data center infrastructure.

The nlyte suite of software solutions is designed to provide a rapid and solid Return On Investment (ROI) within a short time frame, and is fully supportive of methodologies such as ITIL and CobiT.

Since 2003 nlyte has evolved and now includes solutions for smaller data centers (nlyte Express) and larger organizations that require the ability to have a workflow driven total environment control of their datacenters (nlyte Enterprise).

Background
Over the years, GDCM's design team had worked with many systems in the datacenter environment at large organizations and concluded that a new tool was required to embody their diverse and broad experience of managing large scale distributed technology systems and facilities. nlyte was designed to meet this need for a strategic solution because traditional disparate tools such as spreadsheets, databases, visualization tools, process tools, email and network discovery systems are unable to cope with the management of a mission-critical service orientated technology architecture.

The types of datacenter management challenges that GDCM's solutions are designed to solve include:

1. Asset lifecycle management and optimization
2. Heat and cooling balancing
3. Datacenter power phasing, equipment diversity and power ceiling
4. Network mapping and management
5. Datacenter capacity planning and datacenter utilization
6. Change, consolidations and "in-sourcing" simulation, impact assessment and management
7. Optimizing availability
8. Task management and task performance
9. Datacenter reporting

GDCM's goal is to empower IT professionals by providing software solutions and services that automate time consuming tasks and that bridge the gaps between facilities management and technology management. GDCM is committed to the ongoing development, enhancement and support of the nlyte system. GDCM will continue to expand the range of services available to provide a total solution to datacenter facilities management.
