Case Study: F5 improves asset visibility and data center management with Sunbird DCIM

F5 reduces support response time and manages 12,000 assets with Sunbird DCIM

F5, a global leader in multi-cloud application security and delivery technology, faced the challenge of managing approximately 12,000 assets across its data centers in the United States, India, and Israel. The company needed to standardize support, monitor power usage, forecast capacity, and reduce manual effort for asset management. To address this, F5 turned to the vendor Sunbird and its DCIM software solutions, Power IQ and dcTrack.

Sunbird provided a comprehensive DCIM solution that gave F5 end-to-end visibility into its assets, including real-time power and environmental monitoring with Power IQ and detailed asset management with dcTrack. The implementation resulted in significantly improved asset awareness, a major reduction in support response time through integration with ServiceNow, and efficient remote power cycling of devices. F5 management can now make faster, informed decisions using trusted reports, and the team saves considerable time with features like bulk editing.
