Nlyte Software has announced its new Colocation Edition. The new offering enables colocation and data center providers to easily generate and share detailed reports with customers regarding power usage effectiveness and data center capacity planning as well as in-depth analytics identifying unused IT assets and service level agreements (SLAs) validation.
