A team of IBM researchers in Switzerland is experimenting with a micro network of copper tubes that run through smaller, clustered computer servers and whisk away heat with the help of warm water. Liquid cooling, even with warm water, is 4,000 times more effective than air cooling at removing heat, they say. Researchers from IBM and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in … [Read more...]

Greenpeace Issues Warning about Data Center Power
Greenpeace is calling on technology giants like Apple, Microsoft, Yahoo and Facebook to power their data centers with renewable energy sources. Their electricity often comes from utility companies that generate power from burning coal, says the group. Greenpeace estimates that data centres will use 1,963 billion kilowatt hours of electricity by 2020. That is more than the power … [Read more...]
