The Globalization of Cleantech

Data Center & Green IT

Sai GundavelliCEO/FounderSolix Technologies

Climate Change Impact – Life on Earth

• Earth would warm as more CO2 is put into the atmosphere

• Noticeble changes to Earth's climate by around 2000• Sea-level would start rising • Earth's Ice would start melting rapidly • Hurricanes would increase in intensity • Few species would start going extinct • Australia would start drying out • Tropical diseases would increase • Food crops would be adversely affected • Rising CO2 would begin to acidify the ocean

The Data Center Problem

• Data Centers’ share of global power consumption: 2% -same as aviation sector!

2%



• Implication of this ratio in 5 years: data is growing 40% pa while aviation travel is stagnant

Growing Power Costs: CIOs are being mandated to reduce their utility billsCarbon Emission: Data Centers are a significant part of the problem



• EPA estimates (in 2006) for typical US Data Center: for 1kwh going to productive computing, another 1kwh consumed for support (power distribution, HVAC)

• EPA recommended Power Usage Efficiency (PUE) of 2.0 to be brought down to 1.3 (best practice) and 1.2 (state-of-art) by 2011


Data Center’s Green IT Imperatives

Benchmark & Measure What’s the “As is” for Power Consumption & Carbon Emission? Measure & Improve for Sustainability

Control Data Growth Control data duplication (example: Application Test Copies, Email

attachments) Implement Information Lifecycle Management (example: According to

Gartner, 80% of the data in Applications in Inactive)

Eliminate Wastage Enable PC power optimization module Deploy more energy-efficient computing (example: Energy Star rated,

MAID); retrofit building to LEED compliant

Optimize Data Center Infrastructure Virtualization (Servers, Storage, Desktops) Rationalization & Consolidation (Hardware & Software)


Solix EDMS: An Enabler for Green IT

Controlling Data Growth Database Archiving - Classify data; help customers define data

retention policy and purge inactive data or move historical data to lower power consuming (slower speed) storage

Database Subsetting - Reduce db size of test copies, Application retirement - Reduce db size with 90% compression

Optimizing Data Center Infrastructure Rationalization & Consolidation: Eliminate Inactive Applications, Reduce

Applications, Server/Storage and Data Centers
