Harbour IT's November Techie Brekky was a joint session hosted by IBM and APC on green server environments and cooling.
Attendees benefitted from hearing about:
- How the overall efficiency of IT environments can be greatly improved
- The key to providing IT Infrastructure with the cooling reliability and availability levels required
- How to reduce the energy consumption from your IT environment with APC and IBM
- How to achieve maximum cooling and minimal floor space
- Scalable solutions including air distribution/fans, portables, and precision cooling systems
- Tailored solutions for environments of all sizes.
In today's high density IT environment, the landscape is ever-changing and unpredictable. Energy costs currently represent about 10% of annual IT budgets. This is expected to increase to 50% in the next five years. Not surprisingly therefore, a Gartner survey recently revealed that 70% of CIOs consider power and/or cooling issues as the single largest problem facing their data centres.
