As colocation demand surges, space is becoming increasingly scarce and costly. According to CBRE, the average asking rate in primary wholesale colocation markets for a 250–500 kW requirement has climbed 12.6% year-over-year to a record $184.06 per kW/month, while vacancy rates have dropped to a record-low 1.9%. With vacancy rates low and power costs rising, doing more with less in your data center is essential.

Accurately tracking how data center devices are connected—across switches, patch panels, structured cabling, and more—is essential for efficient data center operations. But for many teams, documentation still lives in static diagrams or outdated spreadsheets, requiring extensive manual effort. This is time-consuming and leads to inaccuracies that can cause delays in planning or troubleshooting and unnecessary risk. Sunbird DCIM changes that.
