What would you do with 50% more of your IT budget to allocate to new projects?
The IBM Data Center Study found that highly efficient data centers allocate 50% more of their IT budget to new projects, yet only 21% of data centers are highly efficient. Learn what makes data centers highly efficient and how you can improve them further.
IT demands are increasing. Budgets remain flat and 70 percent of every IT dollar is spent on managing the current data center environment. But smarter data centers are responding faster to change—and transforming operational costs. That’s because new analytics-based services provide the capability to gain new insights into data center operations and actively monitor and manage for continual improvement. Bottom line: Nothing beats analytics for improving data center management.
By transforming insights into action, analytics-based services can help you:
- Extend the life of the existing data center infrastructure and double IT capacity or reduce operational costs by 50 percent
- Rationalize the data center infrastructure and improve operational efficiencies while reducing operational costs by 50 percent
- Implement a flexible, modular data center design and defer up to 40 to 50 percent of your capital and operational costs
- Integrate IT and facilities operations management to help reduce operational costs by up to 20 percent
