Z/Yen – FS CLUB Webinar
The carbon footprint and ESG credentials of enterprises, including those in the banking and financial services industry, have been hot topics of late. Equally, energy and IT infrastructure costs have been a critical topic for many CTOs and CIOs in enterprises. But are we already doing the best that we can? Is it possible to further lower carbon footprint and lower energy costs?
Data centres are already running at a PUE of 1.0x. How could we further optimize? Public clouds are operating at scales beyond what many people can imagine and should therefore have efficiencies of scale. Is it the truth, or is it just a fallacy?
How does Sardina Systems further lower its carbon footprint?
