The Energy-Conscious Data Center

Filed in archive Methodology on April 12, 2007

It isn't enough to worry about whether your data center is performing properly, is secure enough and is sufficient for the data you're generating. In your effort to make sure you have enough storage, enough security and enough robustness, you may be sucking a lot of energy in the process. In many cases, your storage area may not be able to handle the heat or the power needs of your newer storage equipment.

Dell believes it can solve those problems. In a white paper that is more advertorial than guide, Building the Energy-Smart Data Center, the company highlights some of the more energy-efficient equipment it manufactures that can help bring an energy savings to your data center. In this paper are gems of information - what types of servers you should be looking for, specs on particular units that consumers can then match against other existing products, and how the products can be used to bring more savings to your company.
