Pittsburgh, PA. – June 22, 2007 – EDSA Micro Corporation today announced an enhanced new version of its Paladin® Live™ power analytics platform that includes two first-of-their-kind new features – power systems infrastructure virtualization and capacity management – to provide facilities managers with unprecedented insight into the real-time status of the resilience of their operations.  The noteworthy new features include:

• Paladin® Infrastructure Virtualization Environment™ – While Paladin Live maintains situational awareness of live operations, Paladin® IVE™ (pronounced “ivy”) is a virtual environment that provides an off-line, mirror image of them.  It enables users to make a “freeze frame” of their real-time, current environment in order to conduct detailed “what if” simulations reflecting the present configuration of their electrical infrastructure.  Such simulations include testing of real-time configuration, maintenance, repair, and other procedures, before attempting them on live systems.
  

• Paladin® Capacity and Resources Management™ – Understanding the capacity of users’ facilities – e.g. the number of servers in a data center, the amount of equipment on a plant floor, or the peaks-and-valleys of electrical loads – gives management insight into when and how to manage facility planning.  Whether consolidating, expanding, or moving facilities, knowing precisely how much power systems overhead they are using – and more importantly, how much remains to be used – is crucial in driving operational, technical, and financial planning.
  
  

“Our new Paladin IVE and Capacity and Resources Management features give facilities managers unprecedented insight into the current state – and the potential future states – of the electrical power infrastructure supporting their business operations,” said Adib Nasle, president of EDSA. “With this new release of Paladin Live, users are able to construct intricately detailed analyses of how much electrical power capacity they have left in their present facilities, as well as the ability to model precise processes and procedures to ensure operational resilience.”

“Facilities managers know that human intervention and error is are leading causes of infrastructure failures” Nasle continued. “With these important new features, we’ve taken the guesswork out of systems planning and maintenance… and replaced it with proven, tested methodologies to ensure that facilities operate precisely as they were intended to, whatever the circumstances.”
