Overview:
As enterprises around the world tighten their belts in these tough economic times, energy costs are consuming even larger portions of a shrinking IT budget. And in most data centers today, there's little sign that the escalating demand for power will abate any time soon. That's why IT managers are looking for ways to improve energy efficiency - to reduce power consumption and cooling requirements - to save money.

Using HP Reference Architectures for Oracle, you get a modular, inherently flexible, and highly available application platform that includes:

• Energy-efficient hardware "from chip to chiller"


• Management tools to monitor and optimize energy consumption


• Dynamic resource flexing to optimize utilization

All these features contribute to reducing power and cooling demand - along with their associated costs.
