on365 has announced a partnership with Concurrent Thinking. The partnership between the two companies aims to provide a complementary product and consultancy service, giving UK businesses a more concise monitoring and management system for optimising energy efficiency within their data centre, as well as access to specialised skills in order to implement identified changes.
Colin Richardson, on365 managing director, said, “The data centre industry has moved beyond first generation efficiency measures such as PUE. A much better picture of data centre efficiency is gained by combining information from computing systems with detailed power information. This allows us to understand how well IT resources are being used, undertake more detailed audits and then identify opportunities for energy savings in a way we couldn’t before. Our collaboration with Concurrent Thinking will enable us to set new standards for energy efficiency at our customer’s data centres.”
