Data centers

More capacity from the data center you already run

Edviro fits a physics model to your BMS, EPMS, PDU and sensor data. It shows how much more load each pod can carry inside your own temperature and power limits, and lists the changes that would free that capacity up. Your team makes every change.

Read-only. Nothing new installed. Your team approves every change.

What does Edviro do for data centers?

Edviro is an AI facilities crew for data center operations. It reads existing BMS, EPMS, PDU and sensor telemetry with read-only access and fits a physics model to the site. The model shows how much cooling and power headroom each pod has, which of the two runs out first, and what a setpoint change, a unit failure or an upgrade would do. The team can then run closer to what the building can carry without adding downtime risk. Edviro also ties related alarms to one likely cause and drafts the fix for an operator to approve.

Where the capacity usually is

An existing site often has capacity it isn’t using, for reasons like these.

Safety margin nobody has measuredOperations teams are judged on uptime, so they keep a wide buffer. Edviro compares that buffer with how the site has actually run and shows how much of it is needed.
Power lost to overheadEvery kilowatt the cooling plant uses is one that can’t go to IT load. Lowering PUE leaves more of your utility allocation for the servers.
The limit you reach firstA pod can be short on cooling while it has power to spare, or the other way round. Edviro shows which limit comes first and where the hot spots are.
Faults using up headroomA stuck valve or a leaking row uses cooling the pod needs. Edviro finds the fault and drafts the fix.

Example: a capacity plan for one pod

Each line is a change your team can approve, with what it does for the pod. Nothing is sent to the BMS.

Questions you can put to the model

Edviro fits a physics model to your own telemetry and recalibrates it as load and layout change. It is far cheaper to run than a CFD study, so you can ask it things like these before touching the floor.

How many more racks can Pod 3 take?Cooling headroom for the pod, from a model that is checked against measured inlet temperatures.
Can we raise supply air a degree?The model checks for hot spots before the setpoint changes.
If CRAH-2 goes down, which rows go over?A failure scenario shows which rows cross the inlet limit, and how fast.
What would an upgrade unlock?Model an added cooling unit or more power before you buy it, and see how much load it would let you add.

How it works

01

Connect

Edviro reads your BMS, EPMS, PDU and sensor feeds. Access is read-only.

02

Model

It fits a physics model to the site and shows modeled against measured temperatures, so you can check it.

03

Plan

You get a 7-day and a 30-day plan of the changes that free up capacity or lower PUE.

04Human

Review

Your team decides which changes to make, and makes them.

05

Verify

Edviro checks the telemetry to confirm the change did what the model said, and updates the model.

Uptime comes first

A change only goes on the plan if the model shows the site staying inside your own limits.

Checked against your sensorsModeled inlet temperatures are shown next to measured ones for every pod. In the Pod 3 example the gap is ±0.4 °C.
Tested with a unit downYou can run any change against a unit failure and see the margin that is left.
Read-only accessEdviro reads your telemetry. Nothing new gets installed, and it has no control of the plant.
Changes stay with youAny change to the floor or the plant is made by your team and your vendors.

Capacity, cooling and alarm diagnosis

Capacity and cooling

Headroom, pod by pod

The model shows how much load each pod can take before inlets cross the design limit, and what a setpoint change or a new row would do. It’s checked against the temperatures your sensors measure.

Alarm diagnosis

No alarms, just fixes

Day to day, Edviro ties related alarms together and names the likely cause, with the evidence attached. Operators get a short list of what to fix, and nothing goes out until someone approves it.

Common questions

Does running closer to capacity raise the risk of downtime?

The plan only includes changes the model shows staying inside your own inlet and power limits, and you can test each one with a unit down. You see modeled against measured numbers for your site, and your team decides what to change.

Is this for existing sites or new builds?

Mostly existing sites, where the question is how much more load the building can carry. You can also test a design on the model before you build, and we’ll go through that on the demo call.

What data does Edviro need?

Whatever your controls already export: BMS points and alarms, EPMS and PDU power, cooling plant data and environmental sensors. Nothing new gets installed and access is read-only.

We already have a DCIM and a BMS. Why add this?

Those systems collect the data and raise the alarms. Edviro sits on top of them, models what the site can carry, and writes up changes and fixes your team can approve and act on.

Does Edviro control the cooling plant?

No. Edviro reads, diagnoses and simulates. Any change to the floor or the plant stays with your team and your vendors.

How accurate is the model?

It depends on the site and its sensors, so Edviro shows modeled against measured inlet temperatures for every site. In the Pod 3 example the gap is ±0.4 °C.

Does Edviro still handle alarms?

Yes. It reads every alarm, groups the related ones, names the likely cause and drafts one fix for an operator to approve.
