Why IBM for a green data center
Issues and opportunities around energy, the environment, and sustainability impact every individual and every business, worldwide. With data centers using 10-30 times more energy per square foot than office space, data center energy use doubling every 5 years, and delayed capital investments in new power plants—energy efficiency is becoming a key metric of IT operational effectiveness. A flexible, secure, dynamic infrastructure can help customers address critical energy and power costs. By combining hardware, software and services offerings, IBM can help companies improve service, better manage risk, and resolve resource constraints—all while reducing overall energy costs by 15-40%.
