Avocent Australia Whitepapers
This whitepaper will help to clarify exactly what the different models of Cloud Computing are, how the different models should be used, and when to embrace these models.
Using virtualisation to reduce the number of servers in the data center immediately reduces power, cooling and space requirements, lowering ongoing OPEX. Reducing the number of servers also reduces expensive space requirements, allowing for more services to be added to an existing data center, extending the life of this large investment
It wasn’t that long ago that IT organizations hardly gave power a thought. But these days power is a problem. Most data centers consume too much of it — at least 10 times more per square foot than the average office building, and sometimes far more than that. What that means is companies spend roughly double the cost of running IT equipment on cooling and infrastructure. IT equipment is the single largest consumer of data center energy, so reducing the amount of equipment in your data center will certainly reduce energy costs. To keep up, companies must be able to manage and measure power consumption just as they do most every other aspect of IT. Read on.
Cloud Computing is emerging as an important paradigm shift in how Information technology systems are implemented. This white paper clarifies the different models of Cloud Computing, how they should be used, and when you should use them. Read on for more.
