1 Green IT deployment for sustainable business and education in The Netherlands Dr.ir. Anwar Osseyran Managing Director SARA/Vancis Chairman Green IT Consortium Amsterdam and Sustainability Program at SURF

2 Green Competitiveness Strict environmental regulations do not hinder competitive advantage; indeed, they often enhance it

3 Greening the economy is good for the Wallets

4 Green IT: a Prerequisite for Competitiveness ICT infrastructure and applications are backbone of economy Growth of ICT energy use not sustainable IDC forecast Big Data business to grow from $3.2 B in 2010 to $16.9 B in Storage is expected to grow most, at 61% CAGR Energy availability & costs are a Big issue Sustainability is essential for competitiveness Green transition is driven by Competition Innovation in energy efficiency and business models Government regulation

5 Green It is also about Spurring Innovation and driving Productivity

6 But First Greening IT: The Datacenter is in the spot light Sustainability Chain in HPC The Data center efficiency Program Towards Green EDU Cloud Green IT Consortium Amsterdam 40% CO2 reduction in 2025 in Amsterdam

7 Sustainability Energy (kwh) Data center HPC system Middleware Application Application performance Green Data center for HPC Improve PUE Cold aisle containment Free cooling Re-use of heat In close collaboration between SARA & VANCIS Selection of energy efficient systems Water cooling Use of GPU s Beware of SW footprint! Hot, Cold & Frozen storage Smart scheduling Virtualization Workload optimization SARA HPC Cloud Services Petascale challenges Software optimization Application scaling User training Remote visualization Community building Improve Application performance per kw that enters the datacenter

8 Focus in 2012 In context of PRACE PRACE prototype : T-platform with GPU and Intel- MIC Tooling en framework for energy measurement of application Comparison of programming models in terms of energy usage versus application performance Measure energy consumption and correlate with applications Collaboration with Green Cloud project (Bal VU and de Laat UvA) Big Data and visualization

9 Sustainability

10 Green ICT innovation by and for higher education and research 40 Universities of applied sciences 14 Universities of applied sciences National Library Smaller institutions of higher education ICT Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) Commercial R&D institutes Dutch Organisation for Applied Scientific Research (TNO), Telematics Institute Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) SURF ICT innovation by and for higher education and research

11 Many data Center in HE are Too Old, Too Cold, Too empty First SURF Symposium on Green IT in HE (Nov. 2010): Data centers in Higher Education are too old, too cold, too empty. A 25% reduction of energy is possible

12 SURF and Green ICT Current Activities Current activities and plans: Assessment the energy usage of ICT, towards a benchmark for HE Study on the sustainability effects of the transport of bits or energy Set up knowledge networks on Greening Data centers; power management; sustainability in curricula; etc) Innovation Tender for small projects on Greening of and Greening by ICT in HE.

13 Sustainable ICT: Top Priority in the SURF Strategic Plan Greening of ICT: Sustainable data centers and cloud solutions Power management Quantify and measure energy use of ICT facilities Sustainable ICT procurement policy Green storage and data management Greening by ICT: Dematerialization (e-learning; e-journals; e- invoicing) Optimization and reuse (smart scheduling; reuse of research data) Alternatives to traveling (video conferencing; remote experimentation) Stimulating sustainability in ICT-related curricula SURF ICT innovation by and for higher education and research

14 Green IT Consortium Amsterdam Objective: To contribute substantially to the 40% CO2 reduction goal in 2025 in Amsterdam by: 1. Achieving substantial energy savings in the ICT sector itself: "Greening of IT 2. Innovative use of ICT to reduce CO2 emissions in the region in many sectors: Greening by IT 3. Creating new business opportunities for the ''Green Collar Economy''
