Bangalore: With the launch of its new technology for greener datacenters, Fujitsu Laboratories of Europe, a subsidiary of technology giant Fujitsu has extended its green datacenter strategy. The company's Total CO2 and Value Analysis solution, launched at the European Technology Forum, has been designed in collaboration with UK government-backed advisory body, the Carbon Trust.
According to Fujitsu, the technology that was based on a simulator was built with support from the Carbon Trust and it includes software, delivered services and physical infrastructure to enable a 'holistic analysis' of energy use and carbon emissions. "The result is a new toolset that enables us to improve energy efficiency and carbon footprints within existing datacenters based on a quantitative understanding of the complexities of datacenter infrastructures and their operation," said Fumihiro Maruyama, Managing Director of Fujitsu Laboratories of Europe.
The company said that the tool could be used to optimize existing datacenters, identify the most energy-efficient equipments, estimate return on investment for new datacenters and many other applications. "These are exciting developments that will have a major impact on our ability to transform datacenter operations, and realize the green datacenter of the future," added Maruyama. The Total CO2 and Value Analysis is scheduled to be deployed in trials initially at Fujitsu's datacenters during 2010.
