As a pioneer of energy-efficient data centre networking, BLADE is the only company in the networking industry recognized on AlwaysOn's GoingGreen 100 list of the world's foremost "green" companies. BLADE views organisations such as the Climate Savers Computing Initiative as key to the energy-efficient data centre of the future.
"BLADE is committed to working with organizations such as the Climate Savers Computing Initiative, which is dedicated to improving the power efficiency and reducing the energy consumption of computers", stated André Luthard, Chief Green Officer, BLADE Network Technologies. "At a time when customers are seeking to embrace best practices for energy efficiency and economically sound environmental value in their data centres, Climate Savers Computing is helping to increase our industry's eco-consciousness."
BLADE is championing the concepts of "Rackonomics" which recommend that an energy-efficient data centre should be made up of replicated racks that have standard configurations of servers, storage and network. Rackonomics-based data centres can realize lower ongoing total cost of ownership through improved energy efficiency. |
