Description |
SynapSense makes wireless sensor technology and software to monitor and reduce power usage and cooling in data centers. |
GigaOM’s Take |
SynapSense’s wireless technology is piggybacking the trend of data center operators increasingly touting low (close to 1) power usage efficiency metrics for data centers, which basically monitor how efficient the data center is. Facebook, Google and Yahoo are all boasting super-low PUEs. |
