Project Big Green is a $1 billion investment to dramatically increase the efficiency of IBM products. New IBM products and services, announced as part of Project Big Green, include a five step approach to energy efficiency in the data center that, if followed, will sharply reduce data centre energy consumption and transform clients' technology infrastructure into “green” data centres, with energy savings of approximately 42 percent for an average data centre.
Visit a page of audio podcasts on optimising your technology infrastructure including many energy-saving tips.
