Nlyte: Leading the Way in Data Center Management Innovation
Since the early days of the Gartner Magic Quadrant, Nlyte has consistently been recognized as a leader in Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM). Analysts, integrators, and customers alike have chosen Nlyte for its forward-thinking approach and robust solutions.
Recognized Leadership in DCIM
A 2020 report by 451 Research named Nlyte the “Pure Play” DCIM leader, highlighting its scalability and Data Center Management as a Service (DMaaS) offering. While competitors focus primarily on power capacity management, Nlyte has taken a broader leadership role in the evolving landscape of Hybrid Digital Infrastructure Management (HDIM).
Innovation at the Core
Nlyte’s success is built on continuous innovation. From the beginning, it introduced protocol-agnostic solutions and out-of-the-box connectors. Recognizing the growing complexity of data, Nlyte partnered with IBM Watson IoT to integrate machine learning and AI, delivering deeper insights and smarter analytics.
Automation and Integration
To further streamline operations, Nlyte developed protocol-agnostic discovery tools that integrate with core databases and platforms like ServiceNow. This automation enhances asset management and supports comprehensive infrastructure visibility.
Trusted by Government and Industry
Nlyte played a key role in supporting the U.S. Federal Data Center Optimization Initiative (DCOI), helping to create the first widely adopted DCIM reporting solution. It also contributed to the second revision of the DCOI mandate (M19-19), offering compliant reporting tools.
Comprehensive Infrastructure Mapping
With its advanced discovery engine, Nlyte developed the first DCIM-focused mapping tool. This tool connects application workloads to servers, networks, and power systems—ensuring reliability and minimizing downtime.
Supporting Hybrid and Cloud Environments
Gartner recognized Nlyte’s architecture as foundational to HDIM, thanks to its ability to manage infrastructure across data centers, colocation sites, edge environments, and public clouds like AWS and Azure.
Driving Sustainability and Efficiency
As sustainability becomes a top priority, Nlyte helps ESG officers monitor and reduce energy consumption. Through partnerships with companies like Carrier’s Automate Logic, Nlyte delivers integrated solutions to optimize thermal and energy performance.
