Very interesting blog posting by Sun addressing their company initiative to remove orphaned equipment across their campus.
The company was looking to identify and remove comatose equipment from their operations. A similar initiative shared by Data Center companies worldwide.
The results included 4100 orphaned servers, of which 64% were still being powered.
Undoubtedly Sun was able to improve their operational efficiency via this initiative and will undoubtedly see a financial return on their efforts.
This article also discusses their initiative regarding shutting down unused air conditioners within their operations and the savings they were able to achieve via that initiative.
