Rising energy costs and data center density concerns have IT departments scrambling for a way to get a handle on their power consumption. This e-book chapter, researched and written by SearchDataCenter.com site editor Matt Stansberry, explores energy efficient server technologies that lower energy usage per server, and virtualization and other usage scenarios that can help reduce the number of servers in the data center.
This is the second of five chapters from the e-book: The Green Data Center: Energy efficient computing in the 21st Century.
