EZINE:
In this week's Computer Weekly, we find out how an artificial intelligence system for tracking puffins could help boost renewable energy use. We examine the often-overlooked, but often damaging, diversity issue of age discrimination in tech. And we look at the key considerations when choosing enterprise cloud file services. Read the issue now.
WHITE PAPER:
Data Center carbon emissions are a growing global concern. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) cites data centers as a major source of energy consumption in the United States. This paper introduces a simple approach, supported by free web-based tools, for estimating the carbon footprint of a data center anywhere in the world.
PRESENTATION TRANSCRIPT:
Today, IT resources can be provisioned quickly and cheaply—some would say too quickly and cheaply. But those IT resources rely on brick and mortar as well as megawatts, which are abstracted from the IT department. This Webcast will identify pitfalls data center teams should avoid.
WHITE PAPER:
This Gabriel Consulting report research report focuses on the survey results and discusses IBM’s Power Systems virtualization milestones and touches on the implications for the Unix server market.
WHITE PAPER:
This informative white paper talks about some of the trends that are increasing risk of overheating and some of the predictive models and design strategies make it possible to ensure contiuned reliable operation following a power outage.
WHITE PAPER:
Typical data centers draw more than twice as much power as IT loads require. The cost associated with this power consumption is considerable and often avoidable. Get tips on reducing electrical waste and learn about better ways to measure efficiency.
PRODUCT LITERATURE:
IBM can help you evaluate the costs and long-term benefits of your current energy strategy. Start with a basic one-day energy assessment or get a full profile of your data center with IBM Thermal Analysis for High Density Computing.
WHITE PAPER:
High heat in critical spaces compromises availability. This paper discusses the pros and cons of different cooling fluids and system architectures, and explores the role of supplemental cooling technologies as data center densities increase.
