Key Challenges
Too many answers?
In order to increase the data center efficiency, the IT industry has created a patchwork of point solutions:
- Innovative cooling methods (Kyoto wheel, solar-assisted AC, etc)
- Better power generation and distribution (delta conversion, busbar)
- Higher efficiency equipment (blades, multi-core and specialty processors)
- Virtualization, consolidation, cloud computing..
More Guidelines
Simultaneously, the enormous drain that ICT puts on global (energy) resources caused various legislative bodies to commission studies into the energy use of the ICT sector and creating:
- Voluntary guidelines and programs (EC Code of Conduct)
- Taxes (Emission rights) and subsidies to stimulate efficiency programs
The conjunction of demand- (business growth and continuing operations), supply- (industry innovation) and regulatory pressures, combined with ever shrinking resources, put IT and data center managers under tremendous pressure.
Data Center Efficiency asks for a holistic and factory-like approach that encompasses the complete ‘chain’ of IT delivery.
