在全球范围内,数据中心每年使用2至4太瓦时(TWh)的电力(约占全球能源使用的1%至3%),预计到2030年将增长到2%至8%。因此,降低数据中心的能耗既有利于环境,也有利于企业。通过减少计算基础设施的电力消耗和冷却设施消耗来降低数据中心的电力使用效率 (PUE),从而降低发电的 OPEX 和碳排放。
绿色计算是关于最大限度地提高服务器和数据中心的性能,同时最大限度地减少对环境的影响。特定操作和购买决策可能会影响服务器级别的电源使用和服务器的生命周期,而其他操作可以降低数据中心的PUE。
Supermicro是设计和交付构成绿色计算的组件的领导者。Supermicro服务器旨在在给定的性能水平下需要更少的功率。此功能是通过尽可能共享组件的设计来实现的。此外,Supermicro服务器的设计使得各个子系统(如CPU、内存或存储)无需更换整个机箱即可升级。使用这种分解设计大大减少了电子垃圾,并在获取新技术时降低了成本。
