July 9, 2007 - Join BearingPoint
technologist and managing director Daryouche Behboudi in this podcast
to explore the growing need to go green, starting with data centers.
Examining short, medium and long-term tactics and strategies, some as
simple as adjusting lighting and sensors, Daryouche explores why we
need green data centers - the environmental impact and how Congress is
helping to fuel this effort nationally.
One of the reasons 'going green' is brought to the forefront is a
first-time study done in 2006, that showed how much electricity data
centers in the U.S. are consuming. This study has prompted lots of
companies to examine their data center operations and see if they can
make them green by making them more energy efficient, including the
disposal of old servers.
