  1. Power Usage: IT

  2. What do you use your computer for? [Short video here]

  3. So…? • Computers have become a very vital way of getting things done around the Ontario Science Centre. • Is it possible to completely eliminate their usage? • NO Then what can we do?

  4. SAVE POWER (AND $) • There are many different ways that an infrastructure as big as the OSC can save money in their Information Technologies. [Pictoral view of how the network is set up/how it works]

  5. Where? • Well we have such an excellent IT staff here at the OSC that they have made a very good example of the OSC by stepping out and making our data centers run as efficiently as possible. • Blade systems • Wake-up utility • Virtualization servers

  6. What more can we do? • Force hibernate at certain time/after certain idle time • Heat recovery system for data centres • SSD

  7. Why haven’t we? • Many of the things that have not been implemented at the OSC are because it is simply not financially beneficial to invest in products at this point. • The financially and socially beneficial thing to invest in is research being done on something such as SSD.
