1E technology on 50,000 PCs => 40% reduction in energy consumption, saving €1.5m p.a. for Dell http://bit.ly/f3RXbh #1E
As we collected baseline data for our first and second group of servers, we have been able to pull together some initial reports for our NightWatchman Server Edition case study environment. Taking into account that we have a few servers that are not yet up and running with the software, it is worth noting that these are preliminary reports, but it is interesting to see what the data will look like and how it will help us begin to develop a plan in order to put the data to best use.
In this blog we’ll share the first set of reports around server utilization. Here is the information we pulled from the tool around our pilot servers:
In NWSE2.0 we've expended the 'Useful Work' analysis to Virtual Machines, so that you can see exactly which of those VMs is behaving badly. In a scenario where multiple customers using multiple virtual servers may be sharing the same physical server, energy use becomes more of an issue too. Previously NightWatchman used to monitor the power consumption of individual physical servers, which is great when you own all of the hardware, but is less useful in large co-hosting or chargeback setups. Addressing this concern, we can now monitor the power consumption of individual Virtual Machines so that you can identify and monitor the most power hungry and possibly even charge for VM usage based on energy consumption
1E, one of the more aggressive software companies in the power management space, has released a version of its NightWatchman software for Apple’s Macintosh operating system.
1E, a software and services company that improves IT efficiency by identifying and reducing costs and waste in hardware, software, energy and time, today announced that NightWatchman®, its market leading software solution for desktop power management, is now available for early-adopter customers with Mac environments.
