Abstract :
This paper examines the process of developing more energy-efficient IT processes for Rochester Institute of Technology. The process for the design of a new “Green Data Center” is described. A detailed analysis of the annual energy performance for the new data center is described. The results show an improvement of at least 25% in data center efficiency, and a reduction in IT related energy consumption of greater than 50%.
