Description
Summary:The research highlighted in this paper is based on the results obtained from a case study performed in different tier level data centres in Pakistan to test the validity, reliability and credibility of proposed green IT framework for implementing green energy efficient data centres. The results clearly indicate that proposed framework is valid, flexible and easy to implement at any tier level data centre. It considers all issues related to green data centres and helps data centre managers to implement proposed framework, to save power consumption and reduce the emission of greenhouse gases to lower the effects of global warming. The framework uses latest energy saving techniques like virtualisation, cloud computing and green metrics to achieve greener data centres
