  1. Global Metric for Datacentre Effeciency Juan Mendoza

  2. Standardizing Metrics • International organizations working together to develop global metrics to measure datacentre energy efficiency. • The consortium has agreed to use the (PUE) power-usage effectiveness as the industry metric. PUE measures the proportion of datacentre power attributed to IT equipment. It can show the percentage of energy lost to non-productive activities such as cooling and lighting.

  3. Global Industry Consortium • Compromised of the EU Code of Conduct, US Department of Energy and Environmental Protection Agency, and Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, and the Green Grid. • The Green Grid is an industry consortium that includes HP, Dell, Intel and Microsoft.

  4. Benefits of Global Metrics • Can be used to measure the energy efficiency of datacenters. • Define energy efficiency guidelines for datacentre components, e.g. switches, servers, storage, power equipment. • Future metrics would be the productivity of a datacentre, measured by the energy efficiency relative to the workload of the IT equipment, and for individual racks as organizations increase cooling solutions.

  5. Information Sharing • For information sharing on a global scale, and between organizations in an industry there must be a high level of trust and quality information. • Use of information to develop industry accepted standardized metrics, to develop better efficient datacenters.
