Microsoft gives a glimpse of a greener cloud
Microsoft has revealed more information on the datacentre efficiency tricks it employs to power its Bing search and web mail services.
As firms such as Microsoft, Google and Amazon drive the adoption of cloud services, the datacentre has become a key battleground – not least because the IT industry comes under scrutiny from environmental campaigners concerned over rampant energy consumption.
“Increasing datacentre efficiency will make the cloud cost-effective for more scenarios and extend the benefits of online computing to many more aspects of human life,” says Aman Kansal, a researcher at Microsoft.
