What you should know about datacenter

2006 (US): 60 billion KWh (1.5% of total US electricity) or more than all US color TVs!

Consumption growing at 12% annually40% of energy needs from banks already IT related

US Env. Protection Agency (EPA) report 8/2007Green IT, Swiss Innovation Outlook, IBM Switzerland

Within a typical datacenter, energy goes to different components.

“Although virtualization has been the buzz among technology providers, only 6% of enterprises have actually deployed virtualization on their networks, said Levine, citing a TWP Research report. That makes the other 94% a wide-open market.”

The Rise of the Virtual Machine and the Real Impact It Will Have

“We calculate that roughly 6% of new servers sold last year were virtualized and project that 7% of those sold this year will be virtualized and believe that less than 4% of the X86 server installed base has been virtualized to date.

Information Week Oct. 2007

“The [virtualization field] is nowhere near saturated. IDC estimates that only 17% of the worldwide server market will be virtualized by 2010, up from 5% in 2005.”

Where to begin looking to "Go Green"Get a deep understand of your environment

- 10-30% of servers are under-utilized (Uptime Institute, USA)Use Microsoft System Center to optimize number of servers

- informs you about performance monitoring over time- informs you about installed hardware and software and

the software usageVirtualize where you can…

SecurityWeb Virtualization

Solid Foundation for Your Business Workloads

Windows Server 2008

Reduces costs, increases hardware utilization, optimizes your infrastructure, and improves server availability

Delivers rich web-based experiences efficiently and effectively

Provides unprecedented levels of protection for your network, your data, and your business

Most flexible and robust Windows Server operating system to dateProvides the most versatile and reliable Windows platform for all of your workload and application requirements

Windows Server CoreWindows Server frequently deployed for a single role

Must deploy and service the entire OS in earlier Windows Server releases

Server Core a new minimal installation option

Provides essential server functionalityCommand Line Interface only, no GUI Shell

BenefitsFundamentally improves availability

Less code results in fewer patches and reduced servicing burden

Low surface area server for targeted roles

More secure and reliable with less management
