HP develops new data center management technology

HP announced in Wednesday that it would combine solar power and http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/13703.html "> Automation Management in its new data center infrastructure to minimize the impact of the grid on the data center."

The new product will be used to record data center usage profiles, provide users with detailed forecasts, and enable them to establish the most effective schedule for computing workloads.

According to an example provided by Hewlett-Packard, companies can ensure that the workload is not sensitive to time and that they can be powered entirely by solar cells during daylight hours. The system can also help dispatch and optimize computing resources, providing the ability to maintain critical tasks during peak hours.

Hewlett-Packard announced that the new management method can reduce total energy costs by 30%, maximize 17815.html "> Renewable energy use, and reduce reliance on 80% of the local grid."

Hewlett-Packard senior technical expert Cullen Bash says there are many ways to improve data center efficiency.

"Most data center it devices run at 20% or 30% of the total capacity, wasting a lot of IT infrastructure," he said. ”

Bash says that by concentrating the workload on several machines and shutting down those unwanted processes, it can greatly improve efficiency.

HP has not announced any specific plans to make the technology commercially available, but he points out that its more scalable research into production is continuing, and so far the system has only been run on HP's Test data center in Palo Alto.
