Integrations

Synestra reads from what you already operate.

No rip-and-replace. No new control infrastructure. Synestra connects read-only to the BMS, SCADA, DCIM, compute observability, and power monitoring systems already running in your facility — and correlates across all of them simultaneously.

The integration principle

Your systems see one domain. Synestra sees all of them together.

BMS manages cooling. SCADA manages power. DCIM manages compute density. Observability manages workloads. None of them talk to each other. Synestra connects above all four and reads the relationships they cannot see individually.

Read-only
Synestra never writes to any control system. It reads operational telemetry — it does not issue commands, modify setpoints, or interact with BACnet, Modbus, or any other control protocol in write mode. Your control systems operate exactly as they do today.

Domain coverage

Power domain
Power monitoring & SCADA
Generator output, fuel consumption, utility feed quality, PDU branch circuit data, UPS state, power factor, frequency deviation, and event logs from switchgear and protection relays.
GE Grid Solutions Schweitzer (SEL) ABB Eaton Vertiv Geist Raritan
Cooling domain
Building Management Systems
Chilled water supply and return temperatures, cooling tower performance, pump speeds, valve positions, air handler states, cold aisle / hot aisle temperatures, and humidity by zone.
Schneider EcoStruxure Siemens Desigo CC Johnson Controls Metasys Honeywell EBI Distech
Compute domain
DCIM & observability
Rack power draw by circuit, GPU junction temperatures, GPU clock throttle states, compute density by zone, PUE by building, and utilization metrics across GPU clusters and networking fabric.
Sunbird Nlyte Vertiv Trellis NVIDIA DCGM Prometheus OpenTelemetry
Operations domain
Historians & SCADA platforms
Time-series process data from operational historians — equipment event logs, maintenance records, alarm histories, and real-time process values across all facility systems.
AVEVA PI System Inductive Automation Ignition GE Proficy Canary Labs InfluxDB
Network domain
Network telemetry
Fabric utilization, east-west traffic patterns, latency between compute zones, port-level statistics, and link state events that affect workload placement economics.
Arista Juniper Cisco NetFlow / sFlow SNMP gNMI / gRPC
Economics domain
Tenant & workload data
Compute delivery contracts, SLA thresholds, workload placement data, utilization commitments, and the economic parameters needed to calculate EA and quantify consequence impact.
Custom API Operator-provided Tenant-provided

Protocols supported

BACnet / IP
Primary protocol for building automation and HVAC systems. Read-only polling from BMS controllers. No write capability enabled.
Modbus TCP
Power metering, generator controllers, and legacy SCADA devices. Register-level read access only.
OPC-UA
Industrial automation platforms and modern SCADA systems. Subscription-based telemetry with read-only node access.
MQTT
Edge device telemetry and sensor data. Synestra subscribes to topics — it does not publish.
REST / HTTP
Cloud-connected DCIM platforms, observability APIs, and tenant reporting endpoints. Read-only GET requests.
gNMI / gRPC
Modern network telemetry streaming from Arista, Juniper, and Cisco fabric. Subscription model, no configuration write access.
SQL / Time-series DB
Direct read access to operational historians (AVEVA PI, InfluxDB, TimescaleDB) for backfill and historical pattern analysis.

Integration during the pilot

DataVox handles the physical layer. Synestra handles the intelligence layer.

During the 30-day pilot, DataVox deploys the physical sensing infrastructure and establishes the protocol-level connections to your existing systems. No new software is installed on your BMS, SCADA, or DCIM. No firewall rules require inbound ports. All data flows outbound from your facility to the Synestra platform over encrypted channels.

What you see at Day 35 is the EA baseline: every domain read, every consequence chain traced, every recoverable gap identified — built entirely from the systems already running in your facility.
