I noticed last week that Terradata announced a new server and the promoted feature appeared to be low power consumption - it uses much less power than the unit it replaced. This is the first such promotion I have seen.
In addition, a week ago in Sydney there was a Data Centre conference with the major themes around building more sustainable Data Centres, consuming less power and thereby emitting less carbon.
This is exciting news and what is surprising is how quickly these "green" issues have become prevalent in IT. Were we trying to reduce power consumption and heat emissions 3 years ago? An idea who's time has come?
