Abstract

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: identifying a data center asset for simulation; retrieving data center virtual reality session data associated with the data center asset; identifying a set of virtual reality map session data; and, performing a data center asset virtual reality map session operation for the data center asset based upon the data center virtual reality data and the set of virtual reality map session data.

Claims (55)

1. A computer-implementable method for performing a data center monitoring and management operation, comprising:

identifying a data center asset for simulation, the data center asset being one a plurality of data center assets contained within a data center;

retrieving data center virtual reality session data associated with the data center asset;

identifying a set of virtual reality map session data, the set of virtual reality map session data enabling generation of a particular type of data center virtual reality map for use in an associated data center virtual reality map session; and,

performing a data center asset virtual reality map session operation for the data center asset based upon the data center virtual reality data and the set of virtual reality map session data, the data center asset virtual reality map session operation conducting a data center virtual reality map session, the data center virtual reality map session providing a session where a user can interact with a virtual reality representation of at least one of the data center, the data center asset and interrelationships between the plurality of data center assets, the data center asset virtual reality map session being augmented with data center management and monitoring data, the data center management and monitoring data being visually associated with a virtual representation of an associated data center asset, the data center management and monitoring data being provided by a data center management and monitoring console.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

aggregating the data center virtual reality data; and wherein

the data center virtual reality session data includes asset map data.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein:

the asset map data includes Internet of Things (IoT) type data.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the data center virtual reality session data includes data center monitoring and management data.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the set of virtual reality map session data includes virtual reality map type data.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein:

the virtual reality map type data includes at least one of current state data, predictive state data, teleport state data, other users data, issue remediation data and results data.

7. A system comprising:

a processor;

a data bus coupled to the processor; and

a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium embodying computer program code, the non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium being coupled to the data bus, the computer program code interacting with a plurality of computer operations and comprising instructions executable by the processor and configured for:

identifying a data center asset for simulation, the data center asset being one a plurality of data center assets contained within a data center;

retrieving data center virtual reality session data associated with the data center asset;

identifying a set of virtual reality map session data, the set of virtual reality map session data enabling generation of a particular type of data center virtual reality map for use in an associated data center virtual reality map session; and,

performing a data center asset virtual reality map session operation for the data center asset based upon the data center virtual reality data and the set of virtual reality map session data, the data center asset virtual reality map session operation conducting a data center virtual reality map session, the data center virtual reality map session providing a session where a user can interact with a virtual reality representation of at least one of the data center, the data center asset and interrelationships between the plurality of data center assets, the data center asset virtual reality map session being augmented with data center management and monitoring data, the data center management and monitoring data being visually associated with a virtual representation of an associated data center asset, the data center management and monitoring data being provided by a data center management and monitoring console.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor are further configured for:

aggregating the data center virtual reality data; and wherein

the data center virtual reality session data includes asset map data.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein:

the asset map data includes Internet of Things (IoT) type data.

10. The system of claim 7 , wherein:

the data center virtual reality session data includes data center monitoring and management data.

11. The system of claim 7 , wherein:

the set of virtual reality map session data includes virtual reality map type data.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein:

the virtual reality map type data includes at least one of current state data, predictive state data, teleport state data, other users data, issue remediation data and results data.

13. A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium embodying computer program code, the computer program code comprising computer executable instructions configured for:

identifying a data center asset for simulation, the data center asset being one a plurality of data center assets contained within a data center;

retrieving data center virtual reality session data associated with the data center asset;

identifying a set of virtual reality map session data, the set of virtual reality map session data enabling generation of a particular type of data center virtual reality map for use in an associated data center virtual reality map session; and,

performing a data center asset virtual reality map session operation for the data center asset based upon the data center virtual reality data and the set of virtual reality map session data, the data center asset virtual reality map session operation conducting a data center virtual reality map session, the data center virtual reality map session providing a session where a user can interact with a virtual reality representation of at least one of the data center, the data center asset and interrelationships between the plurality of data center assets, the data center asset virtual reality map session being augmented with data center management and monitoring data, the data center management and monitoring data being visually associated with a virtual representation of an associated data center asset, the data center management and monitoring data being provided by a data center management and monitoring console.

14. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein the computer executable instructions are further configured for:

aggregating the data center virtual reality data; and wherein

the data center virtual reality session data includes asset map data.

15. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 14 , wherein:

the asset map data includes Internet of Things (IoT) type data.

16. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 14 , wherein:

the data center virtual reality session data includes data center monitoring and management data.

17. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein:

the set of virtual reality map session data includes virtual reality map type data.

18. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein:

the virtual reality map type data includes at least one of current state data, predictive state data, teleport state data, other users data, issue remediation data and results data.

19. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein:
