Green IT: The next burning issue for
business
Conclusion
INTRODUCTION :
• It’s a study & practice of computing
resources efficiently.
• Reduces use of hazardous materials,
maximize energy efficiency….
• It’s a best practice on virtualization , power
management , recycling and
telecommuting.
APPROACHES :
VIRTUALIZATION
• Several physical systems combine to one
single powerful system-system
administrator
• Maximize CPU processing power
• Sizable cause savings
• Reduces the number of storage devices
POWER MANAGEMENT
• Prolong battery life or portable &
embedded systems .
• Reduce cooling requirements.
• Reduce noise.
• Reduce operating costs for energy &
cooling.
MATERIAL RECYCLING
• Reuse of computer or electronic waste.
• Harmful materials – lead , mercury &
hexavalent chromium.
• Silicon Valley Toxics Coalition estimates
the collection of e-waste.
TELECOMMUTING
• Increased worker satisfaction.
• Reduction of green house emissions.
• Profit margins - office space , heat ,
lighting….
• VoIP reduces telephony wiring
infrastructure
FUTURE OF GREEN COMPUTING :
• Computer usage increases in 21st century.
• Plan of green IT – optimum efficiency ,
energy saving.
• Recent inventions of power supply – 80%
efficiency.
WAYS OF IMPLEMENTATION :
• Reversible computing to reduce power
consumption.
• Increase the customer demand for greater
reliability.
• Power sucking displays replaced by green
light displays
• Toxic materials (lead) replaced by silver
and copper.
• Specify low energy consumption level in
request for tender documents.
• Server virtualization – aggregate multiple
under utilized servers to energy efficient
servant.
• Establish usage & disposal of computer
hardware to minimize energy consumption
& environmental compact.
BURNING ISSUE :
PROBLEM :
• Rising energy cost will have an impact on
all businesses.
• IT industry more vulnerable , reckless ,
profligate consumer of energy.
IMPACT :
• Significant increases in cost of living , cost
of doing business.
• Force greater investment in nuclear power.
• Impossible to reduce the growth in carbon
emissions.
SOLUTION :
• Power consumption approaches to IT –
basic hardware to architectural standards.
• Appreciation of size , experience &
expertise.
• Consequence of rising energy prices.
• Growing focus on global warming &
environment.
• Concentration on processing power storage
capacity.
• Server consolidation – improve operating
costs & operational efficiency.
• Data centre managers focus on electrical &
cooling systems.
CONCLUSION :
• Green computing is a mind set without
putting pressure on the environment.
• Alternative way to design a system with
increased processing capability.
• New window for harvesting E-waste
material.
