Green IT : Buzzword 2009 ?

Le cabinet Gartner vient de publier sa liste “Top 10 Strategic Technologies for 2009“. Dans cette liste se trouve cité le Green IT :

Green IT. Shifting to more efficient products and approaches can allow for more equipment to fit within an energy footprint, or to fit into a previously filled center. Regulations are multiplying and have the potential to seriously constrain companies in building data centers, as the effect of power grids, carbon emissions from increased use and other environmental impacts are under scrutiny. Organizations should consider regulations and have alternative plans for data center and capacity growth.

Il est possible que “Green IT” devienne rapidement le Buzzword à la mode de ces prochaines années (tout comme l’a été le web 2.0).
