How to plan a green storage initiativeWhile technology changes have decreased footprint, power loading (amount of power required for a square foot of data center space) and heat load (the amount of heat that has to be removed from a square foot of data center space) have both escalated dramatically. The result is higher energy costs to provide power and extract heat from the data center, and lower utilization of data center floor space because of power and cooling limitations. The technology trends are toward higher heat and power loading, which will exacerbate the problem. | |||
