  Configuring Windows Server 2008 Power Parameters for Increased Power Efficiency
Time: 00:35 EST/05:35 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Server power efficiency is a topic of considerable importance – in today’s difficult economy, IT organizations need to contain and reduce costs. Yet the cost of energy to power and cool a 1U server is now more than the amortized cost of the server (over 3 years).

Energy efficient hardware and software reduces operational costs and directly impacts an organization’s bottom line. We’re in the midst of developing Windows Server 2008 R2, and one of our goals for the product is to build a server operating system that is more power efficient than all of our previous releases. Furthermore, to help IT administrators better understand server power management and optimize their current Windows Server 2008 installations, we’re releasing a comprehensive white paper called “Power In, Dollars Out: Reducing the Flows in the Data Center” today. The white paper gives detailed explanations of many factors affecting server power efficiency, and contains a list of best practices for optimization.
