Virtual Power Systems, Inc. is a Software Defined Power® company addressing the top growth constraint to data centers - power availability. VPS uses real-time machine learning to drive sophisticated rack-level power management, coupled with distributed Li-Ion smart battery systems, which are together able to optimally allocate power dynamically to VMs, servers, across racks, scaling up to the data center level. Its software called ICE (Intelligent Control of Energy) makes power an elastic resource across the data center, even more so than OpenStack makes CPU or storage elastic. As a result, IT workload density is improved by up to 50%-150% within the existing power footprint, while adding reliability and visibility. VPS is engaged with some of the largest data centers in the world.
