Sponsored Why clean air is critical to airflow intelligence
Airflow intelligence was built to close the gap between a facility's design PUE and its actual PUE. Clean air is what keeps that gap closed

The argument for greater use of performance metrics
Greater demands for AI workloads require greater amounts of data center power
With AI operations, efficiency isn’t just about how much energy you consume. Rather, it’s about how much compute you produce from it, making output a more meaningful measure of performance
Why the roof should be viewed as a strategic asset rather than a covering
Two data centers. Same power. Same PUE – very different outcomes
With data centers’ surge in resource demand to power technology’s growth, the industry needs new tools that drive the future of data center efficiency and enhance responsible environmental stewardship
How energy efficiency, renewable energy, and innovative cooling are making data centers more sustainable
From rightsizing to operation, what to consider when designing motors for sustainable data center cooling
Germany’s Energy Efficiency Act, with its demands for a PUE of 1.2, has reignited a debate: can a data center be both highly available and highly efficient?
What is dark data and why does it matter?
How replacing silicon power semiconductors with Gallium Nitride (GaN) can help energy efficiency
While energy consumption remains a critical element for creating a sustainable world, the data center of the future will be built to consider far more than power alone
Ramping up decarbonization efforts in the colocation data center through the utilization of DCIM
Quantifying liquid cooling’s impact on power usage effectiveness (PUE) and energy consumption when introduced to an air-cooled data center
For more than a decade, data centers have been getting warmer - was that a mistake?
The three pillars taking green data centers beyond the buzzwords
When ESG meets IT, a new metric is needed
If we want to avoid futile arguments like these, we need better IT carbon footprint measures
Direct liquid cooling has enormous potential if the industry can get the chemistry right
Multi-dimensional, rich metadata-supplemented metrics are our best shot at implementing actions that actually make software greener.
Advances in data center cooling and power technology could seriously undermine PUE as a benchmarking tool and eventually spell its obsolescence as an efficiency metric
The Pact makes some big promises, but it will be a real challenge to deliver them in time
China has a three year plan for digital infrastructure. Maybe the rest of us should consider the idea
The Edge makes up a big part of the sector's growing energy demands. It's time to get smart about that
Can we hit and greenhouse gas reduction targets for 2030?
Technical innovation got us into this mess. Can it get us out?
To be sustainable, you have to watch your water use as well as your carbon emissions
