Energy costs continue to escalate. Accountability for carbon output is getting stricter. The environment is being seriously impacted by businesses’ practices and waste.

 

Cloud Computing is the answer to all of these issues, a complete win-win for companies’ pocketbooks and the environment.

 

In a cloud, energy consumption and IT-related emissions and waste are significantly lower than in-house implementation. That’s because service providers operate on a greater – and greener – scale. For instance, 4Service’s vanguard data centers allow clients’ systems to run maximally efficient, plus we’re highly skilled in green practices like power management and virtualization. Also, as Cloud Computing creates an intelligent structure for sharing resources among many, it greatly reduces or eliminates the need for most products, equipment, utilities and facilities. The results are more sustainable IT infrastructures and processes, and the advantages couldn’t be greener:

 

>Maximum resource utilization and efficiency

• >Reduced energy consumption > By up to 95%
• >Displaced utility costs > Workstation utility costs are cut by 90%
• >Reduced electronic waste in landfills > No more batteries and minimal software/hardware
• >Reduced waste altogether
• >Reduced environmental impact of workstations as compared to thin clients

 

And all of the above translate to huge savings, making greening your technologies a truly lucrative business decision. Enhanced market image as environmentally-friendly corporation, PR opportunities.
