Thanks to VMware, North Shore Medical Center provides better support for physicians and healthcare professionals while improving data center management with Advanced Micro Devices processor-based solutions. 

Hot spots can seriously reduce the efficiency of an organization's computer equipment. Read this Presentation Transcript for expert tips on remediating your data center's hot spots and discover the costs associated with the task. 

In this paper, you'll learn why high-efficiency AC will likely emerge as the dominant choice for data center power distribution. Topics covered include a review of the characteristics of AC & DC distribution, A mathematical model of the efficiency of two different AC distribution systems, and Why many of the DC benefits are unfounded. 

Building the data center to meet the needs of an uncertain future is an expensive and needless exercise in over-engineering. New designs need to be modular, with built-in expansion capabilities. This paper looks at the concepts and benefits of modularity in all the necessary elements of the power system. 

Using the five step process outlined in this white paper, we were able to eliminate more than 2,000 servers from our own IT infrastructure, saving an estimated $10 million dollars in data center costs. 

Specifying data center density has yet to conform to an established standard within the industry. This paper describes the science and practical application of an improved method for the specification of power and cooling infrastructure for data centers. 

The current state of the datacenter, demands a transformation that helps in improving space utilization and lowering power consumption while still providing the scale and availability the business requires. Today, lowering the energy and administration/management costs are two key focus areas of datacenter managers in the Asia/Pacific region. 

About a billion people worldwide do not have access to telecommunications services, mostly from lack of a power grid that can support network infrastructure. Traditional wireless networks for remote locations rely on costly generators that are hard on the environment. Read this whitepaper to learn about cost effective and eco-friendly alternatives. 

This report by industry analyst International Technology Group evaluates how organizations can reduce IT costs by employing IBM Power Systems and PowerVM verses competitive offerings from HP and Sun Microsystems. Cost savings range from 43 to 65% and are based on client data. 

The cost of operating the data center is outpacing the cost of IT resources themselves. High-density equipment pressures power and cooling systems to the max. Learn of the new approaches and technologies that are redefining the economics of running the modern data center. 

Intel Software and Services Group VP, Doug Fisher discusses Intel’s innovation in the Open Source community helping companies power their operating environments by optimizing for Intel® Xeon® platforms.
