Firms can help reduce their environmental impacts by outsourcing their IT support functions to a server specialist, it has been suggested.
According to Kateri Callahan, president of the Alliance to Save Energy, data centre energy consumption is at an all-time high, meaning it is only logical to think about how to best use IT resources.
She claimed that an unnecessary amount of data servers are plugged in 24/7 in an age when power-saving tools are available to businesses.
With the political agenda encouraging the widespread use of clean technologies, she suggested that the IT sector may soon be under greater scrutiny for its power consumption.
“We’ll want to stay ahead of the curve and make smart, energy-efficient changes where we can,” Ms Callahan added.
Last week, advertising advice site Marketing Donut claimed that choosing a reliable shared hosting or web hosting provider is crucial to the success of any online business.
