Project Introduction &Background
Power Consumption Considerations:
Power consumed is approximately double eachservers load
UPS inefficiencies, whether at the PC or rack Internal power supply inefficiencies
Network equipment (firewalls, routers, switches)
Cooling
Source: US EPA report to Congress August2, 2007
Average server CPUusage only 5-15%
Will consume 60-90% of
its power at low usagelevels
Power consumedconverted directly toheat
Lifetime power & cooling cost more than themachine!

Our investigation showed:
Mixed brands, ages of computers
Inconsistent capabilities
Difficult to plan upgrades
Administrators supporting
Different operating systems Different software products, versions
Older systems
Slower

Recommendations
Increase NewwDeal efficiencywith:
Reducehardware size &
complexity Lower power costsand carbonfootprint Integrate IT
servicesmanagement
Virtualization + Green IT= Synergy!

Virtualization and Green IT = Major savings
Lower power consumption Less heat for a/c to remove
Less real estate for systems
Green initiatives = good Public Relations
Project pays for itself almost right away!
