OVERLAND PARK, Kan.,
July 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/
-- QTS Realty Trust (NYSE: QTS), a leading provider of
software-defined and mega scale data center solutions, announced
today that it has published its RESTful application programming
interface (API) library as Open Source on Github under the
BSD-3 license to provide maximum
transparency and serve as a basis for an open standard for the
industry.
Available on Github here, QTS' APIs support real-time access to
all aspects of data center management including physical security,
power, cooling, sensors, provisioning and many other key metrics.
This allows customers to embed the API into their own systems
allowing increased control and visibility of their data center
footprint.
QTS is committed to the digitization of its end-to-end systems
and processes to enable new ways for its customers and employees to
interact with QTS' platform and accelerate the deployment of new
services and solutions.
"By publishing the APIs, documentation and sample code, QTS
enables customers and partners to embed the physical data center
into their own software applications and opens opportunities for
partners to create new software-defined services on top of QTS'
infrastructure," said Jon Greaves,
Chief Technology Officer, QTS. "The open source approach allows
interoperability with other providers who adopt the standard, as
well as customers who implement for their own corporate data
center. Developers and the open source community can now
collaborate to further increase transparency and we expect it will
be embraced by the industry."
