VR Dashboard for Data Center Monitoring
DescriptionMonitoring large data centers is critical for optimizing the performance of the hosted computing systems. By collecting and analyzing data, one can enhance the system’s efficiency. Spatial visualization of the current system status and historical data provides additional insights into its behavior and possible anomalies.
This approach improves maintenance efficiency by reducing the time needed to identify and fix problems. It also aids in localizing defective components, temperature hotspots, and network issues. While the virtual environment allows for remote inspection employing the augmented reality will fully exploit the capabilities also for on-site service.
We present a comprehensive 3D model of the HPC system, detailing everything from racks to individual servers and their components. We use photorealistic rendering and parametric materials whose properties are modified in real-time based on monitoring data. This provides both service-oriented and well as public relations-oriented materials. Our solution is built on open-source tools such as Blender, Grafana, and Influx.
