The ALTITUDE Enterprise Manager (EM) brings together ALTITUDE NETSERVERS across multiple buildings, sites or organisations to unify data into a global solution. The ALTITUDE EM simplifies overall management activities by providing centralized security and logon, backup/restore strategies, alarm monitoring and peer-to-peer services between NETSERVERS. Advanced management and security features for data together with centralized reporting capability of alarms and events provides enhanced control and security for the Enterprise.

 

Centralised security management and Logon

  • Centralised databases (archive and backup)
  • Centralised Alarm management + automatic re-sync post power failure
  • Centralised maintenance (service packs applied to Altitude servers centrally)
  • True peer to peer comms, irrespective of ALTITUDE EM availability
  • Distributed Alarm Monitoring client

Simplify management activities.

Centralised administration of multiple ALTITUDE NETSERVERS' users and groups enforces consistency, transparency and hardened security across multiples buildings and sites. Built-in backup/restore and managed update facilities brings peace of mind that disaster recovery and upgrades can be swiftly and reliably carried-out. In essence, the ALTITUDE EM enables deployment of best practices across operations, simply and consistently.

Scalable alarm management.

Alarm data from multiple buildings or sites is consolidated within the ALTITUDE EM and redistributed to Web Browsers (Alarm Monitoring clients) across the global network infrastructure. This powerful feature provides improved user collaboration and consolidation resources to enable problems to be resolved and to provide a focused response to emergencies in real time. Alarms can be escalated to higher levels of management for critical events or forwarded via e-mail / SMS.

Reduce business risks and regulatory exposure.

The ALTITUDE EM provides an additional layer of redundancy and security for all databases and Alarm Management. ALTITUDE EM enables prompt action to address process, hardware or even human failures.

Messages and files are systematically authenticated and validated at both ends of the link, while every transaction is automatically recorded in an audit trail. This is especially important for facilities operating under stringent regulations, within the life science, healthcare and food industries and in mission critical environments such as data centres.

Enterprise-wide cost saving strategies.

The ALTITUDE EM provides NETSERVERS with peer-to-peer communication capabilities. After initial configuration through the ALTITUDE EM, NETSERVERS can exchange data in real-time, irrespective of the ALTITUDE EM availability. Enterprise-wide building automation management leads to greater efficiency, reduced energy bills and improved comfort for occupants.

Further benefits can be leveraged through the optional ALTITUDE Energy Suite (ES). The ALTITUDE ES provides monitoring, targeting and analysis of energy data aggregated through the ALTITUDE NETSERVERS. The powerful combination of both ALTITUDE ES to provide individually targeted reports and ALTITUDE NETSERVERS to implement control in real time provides an invaluable tool to reduce energy costs, bring financial certainty to utility bills and quantify progress on environmental objectives.
