Detailing powerful methods for reducing the energy costs
associated with operating a data center, Making Your Data Center
Energy Efficient examines both equipment and building facilities.
It reviews the rationale for conserving energy and demonstrates how
conservation and careful equipment selection can lead to
significant improvements to your bottom line. For those not
well-versed in financial or energy terms, the first two chapters
provide a detailed discussion of the terms associated with
different types of energy, as well as how to compute the return on
investment for energy conservation efforts.
The text includes tables of monthly expenses associated with
operating equipment that will help you convert problems into simple
table lookup processes. Among the money-saving topics discussed, it
considers:
- How to minimize the energy consumption of a wide range of
devices
- A little-understood topic that can make a big impact on energy
costs general heating and cooling
- Techniques required to effectively monitor different types of
meters
- Phantom energy usage and methods for minimizing its cost to

you with the ability to recognize the efficiencies and
inefficiencies of various types of devices, so you can provide
input into the decision-making process. From replacing lighting to
consolidation and virtualization, it provides you with the
