Today s data centers face enormous challenges: I need to cut costs and reduce my data center footprint. I need to control my energy expenses. I need to improve availability, reduce downtime, and increase server utilization. I need to align IT with the goals of the business. I need to improve service management. 7 Challenges Capital and operational expenses space and power constraints Infrastructure fragile and problematic to change many specialized skills and tools required, weeks to deploy new solutions Where to start how to develop an integrated strategy rather than a series of overlapping projects 2010 IBM Corporation
Characteristics of a sustainable Green Datacenter... be more concrete please!!!
Green Datacenter evolution Green Datacenters for idealistic outriders Total operational costs... A black box. Cost responsability shared among departmens CAPEX-focus, constructionand infra component cost Provisioning of capacity, abundance Low degree of capacity utilization Many DC everywhere, not location optimized transformation Green and/or Carbon Strategy as integral part of Corporate Strategy Dynamic Energy Monitoring, Full cost transparency and responsabilities OPEX-focus for cost-reduction, lifecycle-cost Scaleability, modularity, pay-asyou grow High degree of capacity utilization, virtualized, clouded Consolidated at a well assessed location (climate, energy cost and energy availability) Space as much IT needs Individual, one of a kind design High Density, space optimized, service oriented Best practices, standardizations 80 s, 90 s 00 s 10 s 2020
