Life without IT =UNIMAGINABLE
• Individuals
• Societies
• Governments
• Businesses of all sizes
• Research organisations

HOW WE GOT HEREFrom computing-centric to data-centric – we now need interfacing, connectivity & constant access.
1970s 1980s 1990s Today +

IT - AT THE VERY CORE OFOUR LIVESInstant connectivity / Online shopping / Augmented reality / Streaming
movies /Social media / Games / Communication
Transcends cultures & socio-economic groups

Four decades of digital platform proliferation+
Exponential increase in density and decrease in cost
WHAT FUELED THIS GROWTH?

DATA DELUGE!!!
• Was only 150 Exabytes in 2005 1.8 Zettabytes in 2011 (Source: IDC)
• Supply-chain management, 10x increase in data in a year
• 50% of economic value in developed countries
• US aerial surveillance models 30x more data in 2011

What do we do when the Data-Centric Universe meets the Energy Wall?
TWO INFLECTION POINTSHEADING TOWARDS COLLISIONData growing faster than technology
Emergence of a data-centric world in whichIT focuses on massive data•Companies spending $$$ to collect & analyse data
•Commerce entirely data driven•Scientific discovery via massive data analysis
•Personalised computing

SERVER ENERGY & COSTSRISING EXPONENTIALLY
Data center energy(from Energy Star US report, 2007)

Energy > CAPITAL COST?
Monthly Data Center Costs3 year server & 15 year infrastructure
amortizatization(blog.mvdirona.com, 2008)
• Servers becoming relatively cheaper • Power beginning to dominate cost
• Exponential costs if not mitigated
• Data centers already greater carbon
footprint than airline industry• Can consume up to 100 times more energy
than a standard office building
• Often, less than 15% of original sourceenergy is used for the IT equipment in adata center (US DOE Industrial Technologies Program,2009)

MASSIVE DATA MEETS ENERGYWALL
• Densities will continue to grow foranother decade, but voltageshave levelled off...
• Data centers already have thecarbon footprint of the airlineindustry
• An exponential increase inenergy and costs if not mitigated
• We need to work towards energyneutral IT
