Dell Case Study: Deutsche Rentenversicherung
White Paper Deutsche Rentenversicherung deployed Dell for its solution and implemented Dell PowerEdge Energy Smart 1950 servers which helped reduce power consumption and heat output, enabling the company to reduce day to day power costs and maintain its... [18 Jun 2008]
Ethernet Power Study of Cisco and Competitive Products
White Paper Heat dissipation is calculated in British thermal units (Btus)2 and is calculated as 3.41 Btus per W of power consumption. An efficient cooling system would consume approximately 0.33 Btus for every Btu cooled, leading to a power consumption of... [13 Jun 2008]
Data Center Solutions: Planning Considerations for Data Center Facilities Systems
White Paper The deployment of high-density blade servers and storage devices in the data center to handle these workloads has resulted in spiraling rates of power consumption and heat generation. Data centers are at the core of business activity, and the... [26 Apr 2008]
Power Struggle: How IT Managers Cope With Data Center Power Demands and the Raptor Solution
White Paper The primary goals for data center operators are to save power costs and cool the systems to prevent heat-induced failures, expand data center space without straining the company budget every time an expansion occurs and plan a distributed data... [26 Apr 2008]
Improving Performance and Reducing Costs to Supply Growing Demand
White Paper The company's challenge was to reduce data center footprint, power consumption and heat and improve disaster rollover and customer response times. Sabah Electricity Sendirian Berhad (SESB) is the only power utility company in Sabah (formerly North... [16 Apr 2008]
Power and Cooling in the Datacenter
White Paper Processor power, chip density, and the resulting power consumption and heat can have a profound effect on datacenter operational costs. Today's datacenter is more than a room built to house rack upon rack of servers - it is a complex system. [14 Feb 2008]
Virtualisation cuts carbon and servers
Comment Other parameters include heat production and, consequently, the energy invested in data centre cooling. That just leaves the problem of calculating power consumption, as Stewart Baines reports. For example, outsourcing consultancy Atos Origin built... [21 Dec 2007]
Data centres fuelling climate change?
News The main reasons for the scale of current emissions are a lack of floor space, a failure to house high-density servers and increased power consumption and heat generation, according to Kumar. We predict energy consumption of microprocessors alone... [12 Oct 2007]
The greening of IT: Cooling costs
Comment Alternatively they can create their own electricity with a combined heat-power (CHP) generator, which is what BT is doing. Contrast that with 100MW of gas energy put into a CHP, which yields about one-third electricity, one-third heat and one-third... [21 Sep 2007]
PARAID: A Gear-Shifting Power-Aware RAID
White Paper Reducing power consumption for server computers is important, since increased energy usage causes increased heat dissipation, greater cooling requirements, reduced computational density, and higher operating costs. [30 Aug 2007]
Leader: How green is your (silicon) valley?
Leader More important, however, are the resources used to heat or cool a house and the electricity that fires up the relevant IT kit at home - a PC, printer, router, maybe even a small server. There is a line of thinking that equates WFH with less travel... [05 Jul 2007]
Computing giants crack down on PC power waste
News Half the energy gets converted to heat or is dissipated in some other manner in the AC-to-DC conversion. The power in both cases is lost before any work is accomplished by a computer: later, even more energy is lost by PCs sitting idle, or as heat... [13 Jun 2007]
Power-hungry IT industry is "unsustainable"
News Instead, Gartner warns the IT industry must look beyond power to broader issues such as limiting carbon and greenhouse gas emissions, using materials from renewable resources, recycling materials and reusing heat from data centres. [07 Nov 2006]
Power-hungry data centres prey on CIOs' minds
News The company is looking at ways to bring cooling devices closer to the computing gear that generates the most heat, Douglas said. David Douglas, Sun's vice president of eco-responsibility, said: "There are people out there running out of power in... [11 Oct 2006]
Dell to crank up the heat on AMD love-in
News Intel's new Xeon 5100 "Woodcrest" processor, introduced in June, is now competitive with Opteron both on performance and on electrical power consumption but analysts agree AMD won't be pushed out of the market soon. [17 Aug 2006]
