The Green Data Center: Energy-efficient Computing in the 21st Century: Chapter 1, 2008 Update
sponsored by Rackable Systems

Today's average data center is 12 to 15 years old, reaching end of life, and unable to meet today's power demands. Studies show that data center power requirements are increasing by 8% per year on average, and 20% per year in the largest centers. Indeed, creating an energy-efficient data center is paramount to curbing runaway power consumption and accommodating greater data center capacity.

  • Ways to implement energy efficiency in data centers
