An IBM Redpaper publication

Abstract

Information Technology (IT) accounts for 2% of anthropological carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere. Astoundingly, this amount is roughly equivalent to the outputs of the entire aviation industry. Over the next four years, IT energy usage is expected to double (according to "Green IT: A New Industry Shockwave," Gartner Symposium/ITxpo, October 2007). In many data centers today, up to 50 cents is spent on energy for every dollar of hardware.

With a trend of increasing energy costs and greater environmental awareness, many organizations are looking to greener, more energy efficient solutions. IBM offers Smart SOA approaches for green solutions that can be applied to almost any enterprise.

This IBM Redpaper publication describes how a fictional company, JKHL Enterprises (JKHLE), adopts IBM Smart SOA solutions to help drive green initiatives and reduce energy costs.
