A global investment bank has deployed CenterMind, RiT’s IT Infrastructure Management Software, to manage its global IT infrastructure, with over 20 million network elements and ports worldwide. The software provides real time visibility and control of the entire IT network in order to improve data center agility, optimize capacity, reduce downtime, enforce best-practice policies and reduce operational costs.
Replacing a legacy cable management system that was used by the investment bank for over ten years, RiT’s CenterMind solution provides connectivity documentation, asset management, auto discovery, and planning tools for deploying IT equipment, with the ability to schedule and manage work orders. CenterMind is fully integrated with the investment bank’s IT service management (ITSM) system to provide one integrated and comprehensive solution.
CenterMind was selected due to its ability to discover and document IT assets and network connectivity more efficiently, advanced planning and change management tools, ease of customization and RiT’s professional services. In addition, CenterMind includes comprehensive reports which can be easily customized to meet the investment bank’s needs.
“Companies are required to build an agile IT infrastructure in order to address rapidly changing business needs and seize market opportunities”, said Raphael Sankar, VP Sales & Business Development with RiT. “An IT infrastructure management software, such as CenterMind, provides such agility and flexibility, while maximizing the utilization of existing IT facilities.”
