Combining real-time monitoring with event management and analytics to help building owners and managers optimize energy, and enhance operations and reliability.
Improve facilities & real estate asset reliability & performance to reduce energy, lower maintenance & management costs & extend asset life to help create a smarter building.
IBM Intelligent Building Management integrates with building management systems & equipment to capture data which can be used for improved energy analytics and performance, facilities management and reduced operating costs.
- Collect energy and operational metrics into a central repository for enterprise-wide analytical and optimization capability
- Centralize real-time events for consolidation, correlation and to initiate actions (e.g service requests)
- Initiate work orders for anomalies detected from application of analytical rules based on energy and operational data
- Get a single, role-based dashboard view of the building data to visualize energy, environmental and portfolio performance metrics
- View historical data to compare trends and identify corrective action
- Create future scenarios for better planning with predictive analyses
- Operating systems supported: Linux

Virtualized Environment
Software:
The following software is required for the deployment infrastructure:
- VMware vSphere 4.1. VMware vSphere includes the VMware ESXi 4.1 hypervisor that is required for deployment.
- VMware vCenter Server 4.1.0. VMware vCenter Server is a required, separately licensed component of a VMware vSphere implementation.
- VMware vSphere client. Install the client on a Windows administrative workstation that is supported by VMware. A minimum of 250 GB of free disk space is required on the VMware vSphere client to process the virtual machine template files. Ensure that there is sufficient disk space on the client system.
For a list of hardware configurations supported by VM Ware technology, use VM Ware’s Compatibility Guide available at this link:
Hardware:
Hardware characteristics (e.g. number of hardware devices, machine class, etc), are driven by resources required by each virtual machine.
The minimum hardware required to host the virtual machine images is:
Four Intel or AMD x86 CPU-based server class computers where each server has the following capacity:
64-bit CPU architecture
Minimum of 6 cores for each hardware device
Minimum of 12 GB of RAM for each hardware device
Minimum of 250 GB of hard drive disk capacity for each hardware device
Resources required for each of the virtual images on IBM Intelligent Building solution:
| Virtual image | Number of physical cores | Disk Space (GB) | Memory (GB) |
