Emerson Network Power buys Avocent

Thursday, 17 December, 2009

Emerson Network Power has expanded its data centre infrastructure management portfolio with the acquisition of Avocent Corporation. Avocent’s technologies and solutions provide additional visibility into the data centre infrastructure, bolstering Emerson Network Power’s infrastructure management capabilities and ultimately giving data centre managers better control of energy consumption, IT operations and costs.

“This addition allows us to combine physical infrastructure and IT device knowledge to give Emerson Network Power a comprehensive infrastructure management solution and a set of capabilities previously unavailable from any single source,” said Ed Feeney, Emerson Executive Vice President and business leader of Emerson Network Power. “Combining Avocent’s technologies with our own data centre power, cooling and infrastructure management solutions will allow us to help our customers better manage reliability, availability and lifecycle costs through a simple yet comprehensive view of the complete data centre physical infrastructure.”

Avocent’s infrastructure management technology is known for managing IT device operations and performance information, blending hardware, software and embedded technologies in a unified platform that simplifies monitoring, managing and problem solving in any size data centre.
