Data center lowers Pue and TCO in cloud computing environment

"Tenkine Server channel January 23 News" with the development of new technology trends such as cloud computing, large data and so on, Enterprise's http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/13695.html "> IT infrastructure construction also presents a state of development. Server cabinets continue to increase, room space continues to expand, UPS power supply, room air-conditioning and other related facilities continue to increase investment, followed by the energy use efficiency is low, power consumption, electricity costs more than the cost of infrastructure construction. According to statistics, the global data center consumes about 2% of the total global electricity consumption every year.

How to reduce energy consumption has become a problem that the IT industry has to face. The survey shows that the world's server installed capacity of about 35 million units, the annual server consumption of electricity costs about 29 billion U.S. dollars, the huge cost of energy consumption has accounted for the IT industry operating costs of 30% to 50%.

With the rapid growth of IDC data Center, the annual IT hardware consumption and energy consumption occupy the most of it costs, in the IDC room generated 50% of the energy consumption from the infrastructure, 40% from refrigeration energy consumption, the last 10% from UPS and lighting equipment costs.

How to reduce pue and TCO, become the core of cloud computing center, cloud Data Center building. At present, reducing the server energy consumption means roughly the following: the use of Low-power micro-server, high temperature server, server virtualization.
