This webinar explores the data management process improvements necessary to track and report work per energy performance to meet customer expectations and regulatory mandates.
This session evaluates the methodologies to account for emissions from IT operations in cloud and colocation facilities and embedded carbon in IT equipment purchases, and discusses their management as part of a net zero program.
Gigantic "gigawatt" data center campuses are being proposed or planned in many locations around the world. They could change the digital infrastructure landscape, but many questions - including how many will be built - remain.
Executives in many industries have been bold with their sustainability claims, setting ambitious net-zero goals and heralding minor successes. For digital infrastructure, as elsewhere, a painful and expensive correction is coming.
Attitudes to critical infrastructure regulation vary across the world, with the regulators and the regulated mostly agreeing about the goal, role and application of new rules. The US, however, remains an outlier.
This session covers common digital infrastructure sustainability myths, misunderstandings, and poorly understood areas, and provides advise on building better sustainability strategies.
With governments now aware that economic stability and national well-being are heavily dependent on IT services and the critical digital infrastructure, many are regulating to strengthen digital security and resiliency.
The data center industry's largest and most influential survey results are in! Join us as we discuss the 13th Annual Uptime Global Data Center Survey 2023 which reveals an industry that is growing, dynamic and increasingly resilient.
The main payoff is clear: power management's impact on performance is demonstrably low, and in most cases, customers will probably not notice that it is turned on. Even at higher points of utilization, the impact on performance is minimal.
The Uptime Institute Global Data Center Survey highlights the experiences and strategies of data center owners and operators in areas of resiliency, sustainability, efficiency, staffing, cloud and innovative technologies.
IT efficiency can offer the keys to unlocking a more sustainable, efficient, and reliable data center. This session provides quantified examples of improvements in business and environmental performance.
The European Union Parliament and commission have agreed on the final Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) data center requirements. What does this mean for operators with a presence in the EU and what does it foretell for global data center regulation?
To help address the growing scrutiny of digital infrastructure efficiency, this webinar explores some of the options available to communicate IT system efficiency and work delivered per unit of energy consumed.
Join us for 2023's annual benchmark review of the impacts, costs and changing types and frequency of crucial infrastructure failures. Outages remain a major industry concern despite improving technology and better management of availability. Uptime…
There is evidence that outage rates have been gradually falling in recent years. This report brings together and analyzes recent Uptime Institute data on IT and data center outage trends: their causes, costs and consequences.
