DC Bridge has embarked on an exciting project to transform data center management. Just 18 months ago, we kicked off this innovative greenfield initiative to build a system to optimize power and cooling in data centers. We delivered a new architecture that allowed us to deliver 3x from before. This is just the beginning what we have on our roadmap.

This talented team is designing and developing new UIs to monitor and control power, cooling, security and more across data centers. We are leveraging the capabilities of AWS cloud services and building custom solutions when needed. We are also building on-site versions of our solutions as well as exploring mobile options.

This is a unique opportunity to create more efficient, economical, and eco-friendly data center operations. DC Bridge is focused on pushing the boundaries of innovation to build a system that will enable a new era of sustainable data center management.

While still in the early stages, the future looks bright for revolutionary improvements in how data centers are powered and cooled. DC Bridge has exciting endeavors underway that will shape the landscape for years to come.
