The Green Storage Knowledge Center

There are many aspects to the study of "Green Storage." From power and cooling to efficiencies in data management, tiered storage, virtualization-the topic list is as endless as the many components of information technology.

The GSI Knowledge Center contains content--and links to content--that address the many aspects of Green Storage and Computing:

Green Storage Program

Within the Green Storage Program there is the SNIA Emerald Program focused on energy measurement of enterprise data center storage systems. The SNIA Emerald Program includes a globally recognized ISO Specification detailing the test methodology that is fair and comprehensive for storage system manufacturers. The Specification provides a building block for national regulators to establish storage efficiency conformance programs. The Program supports cross-industry relationships, provides tester community tools and support, and advisories to regulators.
