SANTA CLARA, CA — (Marketwired) — 09/24/13 — ., the leading Software Defined Power solutions provider for data centers, today announced that Clemens Pfeiffer, chief technology officer (CTO), will be a featured speaker at AFCOM Data Center World Fall, taking place September 29 – October 2, 2013 in Orlando, FL at the Orlando World Center Marriott.
Titled, “Saving and making money in the data center. What every CIO needs to know,” this session will be held on Tuesday, October 1 from 4:10-5:00 pm.
Today, utilization in traditional data centers is as low as 10-20%, which translates to approximately $30Bn in wasted power costs and 185 million tons of unnecessary carbon emissions every year according to leading industry analysts. Additionally, the U.S. Department of Energy has observed that the cost to power a server over its useful life now exceeds the original capital expenditure. Data centers waste a substantial amount of energy and money often because they are designed for peak capacity, performance and reliability. Fortunately, there are several ways IT and facility managers can cooperate to improve overall data center efficiency “sometimes dramatically” without adversely impacting performance and reliability. This session will give CIOs an overview of these recent advances in data center energy efficiency that can save money, and describe how new ancillary services being offered by electric utilities can even monetize the data center.
