A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for monitoring and real-time heat load control based upon server and environmental parameters. Multiple types of information technology equipment (ITE) and environmental data are monitored and collected. The collected data are analyzed, and displayed in a summary format. Heat load control rules are stored responsive to analyzing the collected data or a user selected control input. User selected and automated control functions are selectively provided responsive to analyzing the collected data and the stored heat load control rules.
