IT is a significant consumer of energy and IT energy costs have been rising disproportionately because of continued investment in denser IT equipment.

WikitipTop 5 Cloud Computing TrendsClearly IT will be changed forever by cloud computing. Large enterprises and SMBs are adopting cloud computing technology at an exponential rate. But beyond that confusion often reigns over just what the cloud trends are and over the best strategies for businesses. And the number of people writing about this in the blogosphere often creates confusion rather than clarification. Should your cloud strategy be public, private or hybrid? Should you choose IaaS, SaaS or PaaS? In past articles I have discussed the advantages and disadvantages of each cloud technology and how cloud computing is impacting the IT environment. But what are the top five cloud computing trends?
I also believe that an alignment of standards is necessary. Organizations such as The Green Grid and Cloud Security Alliance are working on this, but the industry really needs a comprehensive guide/entity to which most cloud providers adhere. All in all, I believe that more businesses to will get over the fear of embracing cloud computing as IT directors start to fully understand how their businesses could benefit from this new technology. I am expecting an even wider cloud adoption with a more accelerated increase.

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