GSI Knowledge Center
There are many aspects to the study of "Green Storage." From
power and cooling to efficiencies in data management, tiered
storage, virtualization-the topic list is as endless as the many
components of information technology.
The GSI Knowledge Center contains content--and links to
content--that address the many aspects of Green Storage and
Computing:
Green Storage Program
Within the Green Storage Program there is the SNIA Emerald Program focused on energy measurement of enterprise data center storage systems.
The SNIA Emerald Program includes a globally recognized ISO Specification detailing the test methodology that is fair and comprehensive for storage system manufacturers. The Specification provides a building block for national regulators to establish storage efficiency conformance programs.
The Program supports cross-industry relationships, provides tester community tools and support, and advisories to regulators. Learn more in this video clip by SNIA Board Chair Emeritus and GSI Chair, Wayne M. Adams.
