Reducing Data Center Energy Consumption
Overview Improving data center energy efficiency is becoming a fundamental requirement for most organizations, not only to contain operating costs, but also to support growth, extend the life of existing facilities, protect the environment, and address increasing regulatory requirements. Electricity costs are rising fast. Most businesses already spend about half as much for the electricity to power and cool their infrastructure as they do for the hardware itself, and this percentage can be expected to increase. This white paper outlines the energy-saving strategies developed by CERN openlab and used by CERN, the world's largest physics laboratory, as it deploys massive new computing resources to support the most powerful particle accelerator ever built.
