With Intel® Data Center Manager (Intel® DCM), IT and facility managers have the tools to improve manageability, increase availability, and reduce costs across key parameters, such as energy usage, monitoring, security, automation, and cloud. In an era of rapid data center evolution, Intel DCM helps you control and optimize your infrastructure, business models, and operational expenditures.

In today’s data centers, memory failures are among the most critical hardware failures that occur, severely impacting system reliability, availability, and serviceability. While commonly accepted techniques such as error correcting code (ECC) and correctable errors threshold-based predictive failure analysis (PFA) can help overcome these challenges, they have cost and performance implications. 

Attend this webinar to learn how Intel Memory Failure Prediction on systems with Aptio UEFI BIOS and MegaRAC BMC firmware can significantly optimize performance and reliability of data center infrastructure while reducing total cost of ownership.

Boosting Data Center Infrastructure Uptime with Memory Failure Prediction

During model development we often study metrics with the name “training loss,” “validation accuracy” or “F1 score”.  Ultimately, the reason we use these metrics when building models is because they are available, computable, theoretically supported and, hopefully, correlated to the success of the model.  The actual success of the model, in production, will be measured through a number of business metrics such as “engagement,” “consistency” or “profit”.

In recognition of this dilemma, we have seen the community embrace multiple metrics of success during the deployment of models.  In this talk, we discuss incorporating more metrics into the model development process -- this can allow us to better guide our model development towards success in production (not just during training).  At first, these can be incorporated as simply as passively recording metrics which point to business criteria (such as model complexity) and then reviewing them immediately before deployment.  Eventually, we can embed these metrics in the development process to better align the resulting models with business success.  We discuss our strategies for managing (and optimizing) multiple metrics with the goal of empowering users to make better decisions in these complicated circumstances.

Strategies for exploring and optimizing multiple metrics

There is a growing need for real-time analysis and AI to get the most value out of your IT Infrastructure. Join Intel’s experts for a live webinar that addresses these challenges in today’s data center. 

In this webinar we will cover Intel’s solution to real data center challenges:

•	Requirements for a “single pane of management glass” and manageability consistency across distributed, heterogeneous edge-to-core physical infrastructure deployments
•	Emergence of geo-distributed and multi-site edge  computing deployments, with heterogenous multi-vendor infrastructure. 
•	Proliferation of multiple infrastructure management “sources of truth” and lack of infrastructure capability awareness consistency
•	End-users and service developers require on-demand application access with ultra-low latency and real-time response
•	Specification of application requirements is shifting from explicit hardware capabilities to hardware “qualities of service” and SLAs/OLAs

Power Saving In Data Centers - NetZoom and Intel discuss the pain points of power savings and also discuss the most comprehensive DCIM solution that delivers instant ROI.
DCIM software on average can save an organization's data center almost 25% per year in power reduction costs. Power usage and costs are big pain points in data centers across the industry.  As the cost of power continually rises, and initiatives to go green do not get implemented, how are modern-day data centers’ combatting these initiatives, proactively understanding their power usage, and successfully saving power, which in turn decreases organizational operating cost?
DCIM Software with real-time monitoring can help improve capacity planning by knowing and analyzing the capacity, predicting future capacity requirements, evaluating the impact of change on the data center, and optimizing capacity consumption.
NetZoom’s DCIM solutions allow IT and facilities managers to make more informed and presumably better decisions about overall energy usage, operational optimization, and workflow optimization.
NetZoom, Inc. is excited to discuss how proper utilization of DCIM software and proactively understanding what is going on in your data center can help you draw down power to the minimum, massively reducing your power use.  In this webinar, we will discuss:
• Identifying Thermal Failures and Risks in Real-Time
• Understanding how to proactively monitor the health of your devices
• How to accurately identify power failures and threats in real-time
• Setting policies and capacities and identifying assets or racks reaching/exceeding capacity
• Identify candidates for server replacements and tech refreshes
• Finding under-utilized “ghost” servers
• Identifying impacts for proactive planning
• Rack provisioning and capacity planning to address stranded space
