Summary Review
This report is required reading for IT, energy, facilities, and sustainability professionals.  Decreasing data center energy use—and thereby reducing companies’ operating costs and carbon footprints—cannot be addressed by technology alone. Rather, IT managers must also approach the challenge from a business perspective by setting clear goals, metrics and benchmarks, and aligning business practices. The report focuses on the data center, and provides a holistic view of the actions, architectures and technologies required for systematically reducing energy use over time. It provides an overview of the industry and key players, and presents original analysis based on interviews with corporate IT and sustainability executives and IT solution providers and additional research.
