Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for use of virtual reality and/or augmented reality with data center operations and cloud infrastructure services. The approach leverages virtual reality and/or augmented reality, and insights from various sources of data describing the operation of the data center, including data center analytics, for facilitating in-situ diagnostics, operations, monitoring, maintenance, repair, health prognostics, and remote collaboration, toward enhancing the efficiency of managing and running data centers. In accordance with an embodiment, the system can operate with VR/AR devices that can be provided as VR/AR headsets or other devices, that include sensors that measure a data center operator's position, orientation, and movement within a cloud infrastructure or data center environment, and can display a visualization associated with the physical devices of the data center environment, including where appropriate information from other sources useful in performing data center operations.
