ABSTRACT:
This document describes how to take advantage of currently available best practices for energy consumption in data centers and the steps that can be taken in the future to improve data center energy efficiency. This document will describe a few of the existing best practices.
Reducing energy consumption falls into four categories:
- A facility component (typically, the chiller, fan, pump, mechanical refrigeration, and allied software)
- The IT opportunity
- The steps that organizations can take today
- The steps that organizations can take in the future
