1 Green IT Workplace! ICT4S 2013! Green IT Crash Course!

2 Agenda! 2! Motivation! Workplace devices! Real world example: Thin clients vs. desktop computers! Peripheral equipment! Real world example: Efficient printing! Servers! Real world example: IT outsourcing!

3 Motivation! 3! Classic business reasoning is not applicable! Think globally, act locally!!

4 Workplace devices! PC & monitors! Phone! Mobile phone! Tablet! 4!

5 Improving workplace energy efficiency! 5! Switch off and disconnect unused equipment!! Computers! Use notebook computers for common tasks! Implement systematic power management! Source:

6 Improving workplace energy efficiency! 6! Monitors! Reduce brightness! Don t use screen savers! Phones! Replace telephone sets with softphones! Mobile phones & tablets! Disconnect chargers when not in use!

7 Improving workplace energy efficiency! 7! Thin clients / desktop virtualization! Thin clients are input / output devices only! Computing power is centralized in servers! Advantages! Efficient use of resources! Efficient IT support! Cost reduction! Improved data security!

8 Improving workplace energy efficiency! 8! Thin clients / desktop virtualization! Thin clients are input / output devices only! Computing power is centralized in servers! Disadvantages! Not good for all applications! Single point of failure ( redundancy necessary)! Requires a minimum number of workplaces! Complex implementation!

9 Real world example: SBB! 9! Action:! Desktop computer replacement! Description:! Replacement of 8500 desktop computers with 6000 notebook computers and 2500 real-thin clients! Thin clients use 85% less energy, 50% reduction in hardware costs, no Windows license fees! Tablets are provided to management to reduce paper usage! Energy saving:! 3343 MWh / year = Energy usage of 671 households! 183 t CO 2 / year = CO 2 emissions of 39 households! Overall reduction of the energy consumption of the workplaces by 25%!

10 Real world example: Swisscom! 10! Actions:! Use of UCC softphones instead of physical telephone sets! Mobile phone recycling! Description:! Phone calls are done with mobile phones or the Lync PC conference system only! Old mobile phones are collected % can be reused in other countries; profits go to charity.! Environmental impact:! Removal of phone sets and corresponding PBXs! Reuse of mobile phones each year which contain up to 50 kg CO 2 of grey energy and rare earth materials!

11 Peripheral equipment! 11! Printers! Scanners! Copier! Fax!

12 Improving efficiency in peripheral equipment! 12! Printer centralization! Replace workplace printers with central printing systems! All-in-one printers! Printer, copier, scanner and fax in one device! Advantages! Efficient usage of resources! Data security (follow-me printing)! Reduced IT support! Disadvantages! Single point of failure! Employee acceptance!

13 Real world example: SIX Group! 13! Action:! Implementation of Dynamic Printing Solutions! Description:! Implementation of a zoning concept! Introduction of the reporting tool OM+! Savings:! Reduction of the amount of printed paper from 11 million sheets to 8 million sheets per year 30% reduction!

14 Real world example: Swisscom! 14! Action:! Implementation of Dynamic Printing Solutions! Description:! Implementation of a zoning concept! Introduction of the reporting tool OM+! Follow-me printing! Savings:! Reduction of the amount of printed paper from 140 million sheets to 37 million sheets per year 75% reduction!

15 Server virtualization! 15! Server virtualization! Multiple applications and systems run on one physical server! Processor load optimization! Advantages! Efficient use of resources! Efficient administration! Flexibility! Disadvantages! Concurrent access on shared resources! Redundancy required! Software licensing problems! Big effort for planning and testing required! Source:! Green IT Leitfaden!

16 Server Cloud computing! 16! Cloud computing! Outsourcing of applications and services to large data centers! Usage and payment on demand! Advantages! Efficient use of resources! Energy efficient end user equipment! Pay-per-use! Disadvantages! Suited for standardized business processes! Limited configuration! Data security! Lack of transparency by key providers!

17 Real world example: Alternative Bank! 17! Action:! Virtualized hosting! Description:! Outsourcing of the bank s servers into a Swisscom data center that! has a PUE value of 1.3! uses 100% renewable energy! Energy saving:! 420 MWh / year = Energy usage of 84 households! 66 t / year CO 2 = CO 2 emissions of 14 cars!

18 Real world example: Cloud computing in different sized companies! Action:! Cloud computing! Description:! Utilization of software tools from the cloud instead of running dedicated servers on premise! Energy saving:! Between 20% - 90% depending on the size of the company! 18! Source:
