The only tool measuring
all four dimensions of
datacenter sustainability
in one platform.
WHY USE THE
SDEA NAVIGATOR
Built for Real-World Operations
Most Organizations Are
Flying Blind
Many operators use design-based PUE instead of measured performance. Server utilization averages 12-18%. Storage, network, water, and carbon go unmeasured.
The Result: Massive wasted capital and energy spending that operators can't identify, quantify, or optimize.
Complete Measurement
in One Platform
The Navigator measures facility efficiency, compute utilization, carbon footprint, and water consumption – individually or integrated – delivering immediate insights.
Key Differentiator: The only platform measuring all four sustainability dimensions with practical metrics for operators.
