It touches upon some of the major components of data center that counts cooling, power, storage, etc. The initial stage of data center is mainly based on the functional stability, which involves investments on the basic utility of an IT infrastructure required to keep the store up and available always. These basic utility includes servers, storage, security planning, and application support.

So DCMM comes down to one thing, which is to develop the energy efficiency of the data center and all of this happens remaining technology agnostic. Every data center looks forward to deliver better more at less, reduce environmental impact and benefit from insights to achieve efficiency comparatively faster.
