Our Green IT experience

• We already mesured and analysed the IT of more than 50 organizations

Our observation

• Green IT is not at all a priority for companies, and more for IT services :

– Not a goal

• The CIO Priority is « only » to Maintain the quality of service (and security):

– They have plenty of new projects and no time for non-priority actions

Our vision

• Green IT solutions must : – Be compatible with CIO challenges

– Integrated in their constraints : • Security / no risk

• Time

• And budget

• Concerning the budget, the reduction of electricity bill is often not enough to motivate the CIO. – It’s not a lot

– They don’t pay the bill

Security

• New solutions must :

– not be risky :

• And moreover not appear risky

– if possible, brings more security :

• New vision,

Time

• New solutions must :

– Not take time :

• To implement

• To use

– be provided in the IT plan

– if possible, will save time

Budget

• New solutions must :

– Provide a return on investment :

• Electricity bill

• Investment, maintenance,…

An other observation

• Server virtualisation « explosed »

An other observation

• Virtualization is not “well managed” • Virtual machine (VM) are often

• Lazy • Idle • Ghost • Oversized…

• We don’t use all the “potency” of virtualization

• It results wrong vision of real capacity

• Overcost, • Purchase of new physical servers…
