STORAGE ENERGY CONSUMPTION
Latest Peer Incites:
1. Six Wikibon experts break down EMC's recent analyst event (23 Mins)
2. Grant, a Sr. Storage Admin at a large bank discusses how heterogeneous storage virtualization can help reduce the budget for 2009. (20 Mins)
WikitipEMC customers should expect to integrate the piece parts themselvesDespite excellent announcements in SMB and SaaS, customers should not expect EMC to provide true 'out of the box' storage infrastructure, across the board, anytime soon. Rather customers should expect to build integrated storage capabilities from multiple piece parts, many from EMC's acquisitions in document management, virtualization, security, etc. In the near-to-mid-term, EMC customers will continue to bear the costs of maintaining excellent skills in storage planning, design, integration and administration. |
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. |

Planning a Green Storage InitiativeFluctuating 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.
