Opportunity: EPA Recommends Holistic Solution
Report to Congress on Server and
Data Center Energy Efficiency
“… greater energy-efficiency gains may
be realized by optimizing the operation
and efficiency of the data center as a
holistic system (e.g., through real-time,
facility-level energy monitoring and
management systems)….”

Why OSIsoft: Green Grid Study highlights lack of tools




The biggest challenge identified by companies
was the lack of tools to “monitor and manage” a
data center’s energy usage and efficiency.
Need for tools!
Lots of (IT) software tools on the market today
each with it’s own specialized purpose.
None look at the big picture.
Why? Because they are all
applications and not infrastructure.
