Rackwise, a US data center infrastructure management (DCIM) software provider, is expecting to break its quarterly booking and revenue records at the end of the second quarter, the company said earlier this week.

Rackwise says its revenue for the quarter will be about US$1.2m, a 360% increase year over year and a 75% increase from the first quarter of 2012.

The company received multiple purchase orders from large customers during the second quarter, which caused its bookings volume to skyrocket. Rackwise said it anticipated to reach about $1.5m in bookings for the quarter, compared with $832,000 in bookings during the year’s first three months.

Guy Archbold, the company’s CEO, said Rackwise was attracting larger clients from both private and public sectors.

“We have a solid pipeline and anticipate signing additional software license and professional services agreements in the months ahead resulting in continued positive improvement in revenue and bookings throughout the second half of this year,” he added.

The company’s DCIM solution is based on Intel’s Data Center Manager (DCM) middleware, which aggregates power, temperature and other data from the equipment it is installed on and passes it up to the DCIM program.

DCIM vendors whose products support DCM include Artica, Cirba, FieldView, iTracs, JouleX, Modius and Schneider among others.

One of the recent wins for Rackwise was an agreement with a US federal government agency to create programs that make government data centers more energy efficient by using the latest version of the vendor’s product called DCiM X.

Other major deals during the second quarter included one with a global IT infrastructure and services provider, a US state government, a national laboratory in Stanford, California, that operates a particle accelerator, a US utility, the US Army Corps of Engineers and a global travel firm.
