Today's IT executives are not only expected to create and maintain high-availability IT environments, but they are also expected to implement green initiatives to satisfy customers, analysts, and government agencies that are worried about the impact of modern, energy-thirsty data centers on the environment. Is such a dual mandate reasonable? Can companies be expected to maintain service levels and reduce their carbon footprints at the same time? The White Paper offers a description of the different types of services available to improved energy efficiency data center design and a prescription for successful implementation. |

Today's IT executives are not only expected to create and maintain high-availability IT environments, but they are also expected to implement green initiatives to satisfy customers, analysts, and government agencies that are worried about the impact of modern, energy-thirsty data centers on the environment. Is such a dual mandate reasonable? Can companies be expected to maintain service levels and reduce their carbon footprints at the same time? This question is quickly becoming a moot point as events unfold before the industry. In July 2008 the UK government wrote to 10,000 businesses to warn them that they could be affected by the Carbon Reduction Commitment—a scheme that requires large businesses purchase yearly "carbon allowances" for their anticipated energy usage. The White Paper offers a description of the different types of services available to improved energy efficiency data center design and a prescription for successful implementation.
