WHY GREEN IT?


Information technology trends offer a number of practical, cost saving green solutions for small and medium size businesses. Energy sustainability = efficiency when it comes to IT, allowing a business to:

  • Reduce power usage with streamlined, consolidated infrastructure.
  • Take advantage of mobility solutions to reduce business travel, offer telecommuting, and enhance collaboration and customer service.
  • Improve public image as a “green business”.

Connecting Point’s Green IT consultation will analyze your environment and offer specific strategies that will help your business be greener: both for the environment and your wallet. Deliverables include: 

  •  Analysis of current environment, focused on IT power use and communication systems
  •  Information on incentives and rebates offered by government organizations and power companies. 
  • Strategic overview of business practices to analyze viability of:
    •  Mobility solutions and wireless infrastructure.
    •  Remote PC and printer management to reduce idle power use.
    •  Server and desktop virtualization for more efficient use of resources.
    •  Virtual and paperless office environments.

VIRTUALIZATION


Virtualization allows multiple virtual servers with distinct operating systems to run in isolation, side-by-side, on the same physical machine. This results in a consolidated, flexible infrastructure that: 

  • Consolidates and maximizes server capacity: servers can be consolidated by a rate of up to 15:1 while increasing utilization from 5-15% to 60-80%.
  •  Reduces energy consumption: Every virtualized server saves 7000kWh of electricity every year.
  • Lowers CO2 emissions: A virtualized server eliminates 4 tons of CO2 annually, equal to taking 1.5 cars off the highway.
     

SERVER HOSTING


Your business can virtualize your server environment and have it hosted in Connecting Point’s Data Center.  Even if you only have a single server, you have the opportunity to merge your environment into a more efficient infrastructure. Advantages include:

  • Green tech components of virtualization solutions scaled to small environments
  • Elimination of server energy use on-site, including heating, cooling, power and space
  • Reduction of hardware requirements and capital expenditures on network infrastructure
  • Maintenance and security of IT assets with the redundancy, security, and 24x7 monitoring of data center support.


MOBILITY SOLUTIONS


With network technology resources accessed via the internet, workers are becoming more mobile than ever. The opportunity for organizations of all sizes to reduce business related travel has never been greater.
Connecting Point’s Green IT Consultation analyzes how your business can take advantage of:

  • Telecommuting: technology, security, and viability of home-based workers
  • Collaboration software: projects, presentations, and customer service via the web
  • Unified Communications: the convergence of data and communication networks connect staff, data, and customers anytime, anywhere.


A free analysis and proposal will provide you with information about how your Colorado or Denver based business can take advantage of solutions that save the environment and money—the green business you can’t afford to ignore.
