Carbon Footprint Reduction Through Hyperscale Computing - A Data Center Case Study
Open Compute Project via YouTube
Overview
Learn how hyperscale computing can reduce carbon footprints through a detailed case study examining a 500+ server deployment transformation from standard servers to a hyperscale fleet. Explore how using carbon footprint as a metric enables direct comparison of computing technologies based on "performance per carbon," incorporating both operational energy use and scope 3 production impacts. Discover a carbon-driven methodology that optimizes scalability, performance, and efficiency by analyzing system, rack, and data center level carbon footprints. Gain insights from Erik Riedel of Flax Computing on implementing carbon footprint metrics as a universal standard for evaluating data center technologies worldwide.
