HONG KONG, Jan. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

-- Groundbreaking Data Center Agnostic Platform Delivers Critical 
Sustainability Tracking and Hybrid Environment Monitoring

Big Data Exchange (BDx) ( 
https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=3413127-1&h=3250795573&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bdxworld.com%2F&a=Big+Data+Exchange+(BDx) 
), Asia-Pacific's premier data center, colocation and hybrid cloud solutions 
provider, announced today the global launch of its groundbreaking solution, 360 
Degrees View*. BDx customers have used the cloud-native 360 Degrees View 
platform for the past three years to gather power and environmental-related 
analytics from dispersed data centers across Asia. Effective immediately, the 
latest version is available as a free download to all users across multiple 
verticals, including non-BDx customers, to manage their power efficiency and 
carbon footprints from anywhere in the world. This current iteration now 
provides the carbon-related math for any building, data center, power utility, 
or sustainable forestry programs that connect to 360 Degrees View

With sustainability an urgent initiative these days, 360 Degrees View 
eliminates the complexity associated with carbon accounting and tracking carbon 
credits or offsets. The various carbon exchanges and bodies administering 
carbon credits and Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) currently rely on 
third-party consultants to validate credit and offset claims. This human factor 
is cumbersome, expensive, and prone to conflicts of interest. It is also 
error-ridden, and double counting is a significant problem. As Greenhouse Gas 
(GHG) producers pledge to reduce their carbon footprint and commit to 
aggressive net-zero or even carbon-negative goals, 360 Degrees View provides 
them a solution to track and measure carbon accurately, 24x7, 365 days a year 
with zero human intervention. On the back end, 360 Degrees View can either 
digitally submit applications to traditional carbon exchanges or become a 
trusted node in any carbon token blockchain.

"Traditionally, 360 Degrees View is used by data centers and colocation users 
to holistically monitor and manage their power-related efficiencies, asset 
health, and hybrid infrastructure inventory," says Sujit Panda, CTO at BDx. 
"This new version now also measures CUE (Carbon Usage Effectiveness) to help 
companies report and receive carbon credits. This revolutionary feature means 
360 Degrees View is no longer a tool just for colocation customers and data 
centers, but can also be used by residential and commercial buildings, utility 
companies, and sustainable forestry programs. Being native green, 
sustainability is embedded in the BDx DNA, and it was a natural decision for us 
to offer the software globally for free."

With three editions -- ranging from a free basic version to a full-featured 
enterprise-level plan -- the 360 Degrees View experience allows both colocation 
and renewables sector users to scale up at any time to access more 
comprehensive features, including connecting to carbon registries and carbon 
credit token blockchains.

Key 360 Degrees View features include: 

    - Colocation and total power management 
    - A unified physical security command center 
    - Automated and integrated workflow management 
    - Asset performance and lifecycle management 
    - Sustainability trackers, including accurate measurement of PUE (Power 
      Usage Efficiency), CUE (Carbon Usage Effectiveness) and CoP 
     (Coefficient of Performance) 
    - Connection to carbon registries and carbon credit blockchains

Existing users like the capability 360 Degrees View puts at their fingertips.

360 Degrees View is already getting attention amongst renewable energy 
providers.

"All we have to do is connect to their APIs, and we will have our carbon reload 
math done for us," says John Cheung, CEO of Taiwan Cube Energy, a renewable 
energy provider in Taiwan. "It will also allow carbon registries or carbon 
token blockchains to accurately and transparently validate our carbon credit 
and offset claims."
