Abstract
A system and method for managing large numbers of computing devices such as cryptocurrency miners in a data center are disclosed. A three-dimensional (3D) model of the data center is created using machine-readable codes. The 3D model includes device and bin location information. Status data is captured from the computing devices, associated with location, stored in a database, and used to populate the 3D model, which is rendered in various two-dimensional and 3D views to provide the user with information helpful in managing the data center.
