Energy Efficiency for the Enterprise: Reducing Energy Costs and Environmental Impact
Overview In data centers around the world, energy costs are rising rapidly and consuming an ever-greater portion of IT budgets. Here's a sign of just how bad it is getting: It will soon cost more to power and cool a server over its lifetime than it does to buy the server. Everywhere one looks; IT facilities are running out of cooling capacity and power. With multiplying numbers of servers, higher densities and hotter processors, data centers are hitting a wall. Even though racks are half empty, many IT operators cannot add another server into their environment. Air conditioning systems are maxed out and power distribution infrastructure is completely utilized.
