Reality DC Asset Twin provides a searchable overview of all data center equipment, with power, space, weight, and network ports calculated together. When new equipment arrives, you get a clear answer on where it can be placed.

The challenge
The solution

HOW IT WORKS
VALUE
A searchable overview of the room, with total capacity calculated and changes tracked along the way.
An overview that does not match the room is worse than no overview at all.
Space in the rack is not enough. Power, weight, and ports must also fit.
An unmapped power path is a risk nobody chose.

Connections are often the least documented element.
The data must be usable by people other than those who maintain it.

Implementation
Cadence provides the platform. Nordcad helps you ensure the overview reflects your actual room.
Asset lists, floor plans, and spreadsheets are the starting point. We help assess what can be used and what needs verification.
The overview is only accurate if changes are recorded as they happen. We provide guidance on how to make this part of daily operations.
You get direct access to Nordic specialists. A question receives an answer in your local language on the same day.
Ready?
A short conversation is usually enough to clarify whether Asset Twin covers your needs, or if you also need to calculate cooling. No sales pitch. No pressure. Just an open dialogue about how you currently determine if there is space.
FAQ
Asset Twin tracks equipment, capacity, power, and network. Digital Twin does the same and also calculates airflow and temperature using CFD. If the overview is what is missing, Asset Twin is typically the right place to start.
From your current asset lists, DCIM, and spreadsheets. The platform can connect to several systems you already use, eliminating duplicate data entry.
It is the answer to whether new equipment can be placed in a specific location. Green means that power, space, weight, and ports are sufficient. Yellow means it is only possible under certain conditions. Red means it is not possible.
Yes. Digital Twin builds on the same overview and adds CFD on top.
