This white paper describes how client relationship management (CRM) technology can help mutual fund wholesalers and institutional asset managers address these core industry challenges and effectively foster. 

Today’s businesses are being pushed to consolidate their data centers, address power consumption and implement virtualization in an effort to reduce operating costs and go green. But what are the best routes to achieving these objectives? 

High-density rack-mounted servers reduce space, cooling, networking, cabling, and management costs - as well as total power consumption - compared to low-density configurations having far few servers per rack. 

Read this paper and get a look at how the next generation microarchitecture's dynamically scalable and design-scalable features directly contribute to power efficiency and performance. 

Read this white paper to hear how the authors tackle the ever-increasing problem of the cost of energy consumption in an enterprise. They show how the use of remote power-management technologies allows a business to manage energy consumption while ensuring that systems can be awakened in a reliable, secure manner. 

Server workloads tend to fluctuate greatly throughout the day. Intel Xeon Processors 5500 series with Intel Intelligent Power Technology delivers automated energy efficiency by placing servers and processors in the lowest energy consumption state for each task througout the day. 

The Intel Xeon processor 5500 series with Intel® Intelligent Power Technology, delivers up to 50 percent lower idle power. By replacing aging single-core processor-based servers with new, more energy-efficient servers, you can gain capacity to grow and to increase IT performance using fewer servers. 

Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2, like its predecessor Windows Server 2008, has been designed with energy efficiency in mind. Recent tests found that Windows Server 2008 R2 improved power efficiency by up to 18 percent over Windows Server 2003, out of the box. 

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.
