Green IT

Traditional data center infrastructures use racks of servers, switches, routers and appliances to deliver services. Unfortunately, server utilization of 10% or less is the norm, and the infrastructure dedicated to support a server sits on stand-by, consuming space and power, while the server is idle. The demand for power and space is exacerbated by development and test servers, infrastructure dedicated to individual applications, and redundant disaster recovery assets which sit unused waiting for an emergency event.

Liquid Computing enables a next-generation data center that is smaller, completely virtualized and requires far less power and cooling. LiquidIQ and its Fabric Computing Architecture is designed to eliminate up to 75% of existing hardware components by consolidating power-hungry servers, switches, routers and appliances, yielding a data center floor space reduction of up to 85%. The logical server also delivers a 25 to 30% power efficiency saving over traditional data center architectures. LiquidIQ's unique system design utilizes innovative power and cooling strategies, including an innovative cooling system, control system to monitor and adjust variable speed high-efficiency fans to adjust air-flow and a separate control system that monitors and adjusts power utilization dynamically depending upon real-time workload requirements.

Liquid Computing offers a converged data center solution that minimizes cooling requirements and power consumption, and dramatically decreases the floor space requirements for the overall IT infrastructure.
