Today’s control systems have gotten far more complicated than they were just 5 to 10 years ago. The integration of internet based software solutions for GUI’s, analytics, and web applications using TCP/IP based protocols, combined with traditional building control systems based on ASHRAE Standard 135 (BACNET), Modbus, Lonworks, etc, has created a complex maze of integration issues for vendors, designers, and end-users alike. Most recently DCIM or Data Center Infrastructure Management software solutions have also become widely popular. These solutions suffer from the same integration challenges of IT and facilities based control systems. This workgroup examines a major control change to improve the performance of an active data center in a high rise building, a couple of perspectives related to today’s DCIM, IT software, and traditional BMS control systems and a look to what the future might hold.
