<p style="color: #666;">Fluctuating energy prices have heightened electricity and energy consumption as a major issue within the technology community. IT is a significant consumer of energy and IT energy costs have been rising disproportionately because of continued investment in denser IT equipment. Estimates from the EPA and others indicate that IT will account for 3% of energy consumption by 2012.</p> | <p style="color: #666;">Fluctuating energy prices have heightened electricity and energy consumption as a major issue within the technology community.

WikitipRethink email archives and e-discoveryCurrent email archiving and e-discovery systems are proving to be too expensive, hard to scale and overly complicated. Organizations must draw on recent experiences to re-assess organizational risk holistically, identify the costs across legal, IT, lines of business, audit, etc and begin the process of defining next generation architectures. The key will be to leverage current centralized processes and best practices where appropriate while adapting to the new reality of distributed risk management. |
Featured Case StudyFinancial giant goes greenThe corporate IT group of a very large, worldwide financial organization with 100,000 employees, has initiated an ongoing “greening” process. This is focused largely on reducing energy use both to decrease the corporation's carbon footprint while creating a net savings in operational costs over the lifetime of new, more energy-efficient equipment, including new storage systems. |
