Overview
Data Center Software for Optimized Data Center Design
Cadence Reality DC Design (formerly 6SigmaRoom/DCX by Future Facilities) helps create fast and accurate data center digital twin models of existing or future data centers. The models can be used to explore multiple design configurations and failure scenarios to deliver cutting-edge data center design or reimagine existing legacy data centers.
Key Benefits
Optimize Data Center Cooling Design
Model any cooling strategy, including liquid cooling, (non-)raised floors, fan walls, in-row, and (in)direct adiabatic evaporative cooling
Model the External Environment
Analyze external factors, including wind profiles, terrain roughness, humidity, solar gain, and generator exhaust emission contamination
Evaluate Data Center Design Resilience
Gain insight into data center performance with transient simulations, including failure of critical power and cooling infrastructure
Accelerate Modeling and Reporting Process
Import CAD and building information modeling (BIM) data, simplify modeling with 8,000+ intelligent vendor items, and create customized, automated reports to demonstrate designs
Features
Leverage CFD for Conceptual Prototyping to Detailed Design
Design Software
Cadence Reality DC Design is available in several configurations
Cadence Reality DC Design: Advanced
This software configuration enables the simulation of next-generation data centers, inside and out, with 32-core solving capability. This package is for advanced users who need to model complex data center environments to the cabinet and IT level using time-based simulations, 3D CAD integrations, and BIM. This option can simulate both the internal data center space and the external environment.
Cadence Reality DC Design: Pro
This fully comprehensive software suite offers best-in-class design software for simulating the complete data center ecosystem from chip to chiller with 32-core solving capability. This package offers all the prior package functionalities with the addition of power, flow, data networks, and weight modeling capability. The Pro package enables the automation of tasks such as editing, solving, and reporting. It can integrate with other tools and import data for seamless model updates.
