Analyst Views and IBM
Summaries
Full article: System i and the green skeptic (16-Jul-07)
The article wonders whether System i really is more energy-efficient per workload than the equivalent computing power of scaled-out x86 boxes, because of its higher utilisation and use of virtualisation and logical partitions. (Does anyone really believe that IBM’s endeavours are environmentally altruistic?) It applauds the Power6 processor, which is twice as fast as the previous generation using almost no more energy.
Full article: Turning your Servers green
IBM, HP, Sun and AMD have launched The Green Grid, a non-profit consortium which aims to cut energy consumption at computer data centres by encouraging power-saving measures.
Full article: Lenovo tops eco-friendly league
Lenovo is top (displacing Nokia) and Apple is bottom of Greenpeace's league table. Lenovo offers take-back and recycling in all countries where it operates.
