IMPLEMENTING GREEN STRATEGIES FOR IT
Cisco IT takes steps to reduce its carbon footprint.
A priority for Cisco in the upcoming fiscal year 2009 is to develop strategies for dealing with the issues of climate change, energy consumption, and environmental sustainability from an IT perspective.
VIRTUALIZING APPLICATION SERVERS
Cisco IT reaps significant cost and productivity benefits from virtualizing data center application servers.
Like many IT departments, Cisco IT historically dedicated a single server to each application or instance, creating an explosion in the number of servers to be purchased, deployed, and managed.
