"We have developed our STARflex RFID reader architecture, Edge and Visibility platform software to interoperate with a Data Center operator's incumbent systems and processes to deliver the most accurate view of installed, in-service, surplus, and new computing assets."The company has also pioneered the integration of environmental IoT sensors into its solutions portfolio to improve situational awareness for data center managers. By tracking key factors like heat and humidity, these sensors add value to DCIM software systems and ensure comprehensive environmental measurements and efficient workflows. Sensor-based approaches enhance security management by monitoring access to data cabinets through the added detection of service personnel badge IDs equipped with RFID tags. This results in workflow automation that reduces human error and improves overall efficiency through a streamlined check-in and check-out process. A notable client success story highlights Acceliot's expertise and proficiency in meeting the modern needs of data centers. A major data center client with locations in the U.S. and India implemented an RFID tracking solution to monitor servers in their facilities used for storage, retrofitting, and hands-on maintenance. Tagging new hardware upon arrival helped the client optimize costs and track assets in real time. Acceliot also helped install antennas in aisles to monitor transitions from labs to the data center, providing high-resolution accuracy. Further assessing their needs, the company developed a customized RFID solution that included fixed readers at strategic locations, such as entry and exit points. Acceliot experts assisted in selecting RFID tags for each asset class and consulted on reader installation and software integration. The project enabled real-time asset tracking, automated inventory updates, and system alerts. The consistent support and efficiency have resulted in a lasting partnership between Acceliot and the client, maximizing its reach to a larger audience through word of mouth. In a world where the demand for real-time data, video, and previously unimagined horsepower to process AI-informed workloads is rising at an accelerated rate, Acceliot is not just keeping pace; it is pioneering the way forward. Its innovative use of RFID technology streamlines asset management, contributes to digital twin dashboards of DC performance and transforms the way data centers operate, ensuring that they remain agile and effective in the face of increasing complexity. We recognize the significant impact that AI workloads and cloud computing have on today's data centersPaul Barriga, CTO
