Abstract

In recent years, with the development of cloud computing and Internet business, the scale of data centers has been continuously expanding. The number of IT equipment in data center has also been rising, showing a trend of tenfold or hundredfold expansion. The asset management of server room in data center has become complicated. The drawbacks of traditional manual operation and maintenance management methods are becoming more and more obvious: manual asset inventory is prone to errors, regular inspection is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the IT assets change frequently, which often lead to discrepancies between accounts and reality. In order to minimize the effect of existing issue of asset management, this paper designs an RFID-based information asset management system based on the realistic needs of enterprise information asset management, which realizes unmanned automated inventory and management of enterprise information asset equipment through RFID electronic tags, and achieves the full tracking and accurate positioning of IT asset life cycle. The new RFID-based asset management system effectively solves the problems in current enterprise fixed asset management as well as improves the level and capability of the information level of fixed assets management.
