<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.

WikitipDemartek Updates Interface Comparison with Fiber-optic Cabling InformationDemartek has updated its Storage Interface Comparison reference document with information about OM3 and OM4 fiber-optic cabling. The cabling section includes information about various cable types used for storage interfaces and provides information about multi-mode and single-mode fiber optic cables and the distances supported for various transmission speeds, including 8Gb FC and 10GbE. This reference document includes information about several interfaces used for storage technologies such as Fibre Channel, FCoE, Infiniband, iSCSI, SAS, SATA and USB. It includes transfer rates, history, roadmaps for these interfaces and information about cabling and connectors. |
Featured Case Study
Financial 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. |

Featured How-To Note |
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. Estimates from the EPA and others indicate that IT will account for 3% of energy consumption by 2012. | |||
