for students, faculty and staff Green IT at UW Toward sustainable technology solutions for students, faculty and staff Terry Gray, Ph.D. Associate VP, Technology Strategy UW Information Technology gray@uw.edu 23 March 2011

Agenda Green IT Problem 1: Resource use and disposal Green IT Problem 2: Energy consumption UW's Climate Action Plan Current UW-IT Plans for Sustainable Computing

Green IT – Sustainable Computing Why sustainability matters: Energy costs Cooling and energy availability (blocking growth) Concerns for the environment Threats to public health If we want to be part of the solution, we have to change the way we use power to reduce our impact on the environment

Green IT Problem 1: eWaste E-disposal – a shame! Disposed annually in U.S. 40 million desktops and laptops 32 million monitors 140 million cell phones 27 million televisions 2007: Over 3 million tons of E-waste disposal in US 2011: Expected to quadruple Sustainable IT also reduces consumable and manufacturing waste Source: EPA. Date from 2007

eWaste Hazards Think about it: Serious health risks: For every pound a computer weighs, there are more than 2.5 times as much weight in waste, and almost a pound-for- pound equivalent of toxic waste. Serious health risks: Arsenic Beryllium Cadmium Lead Mercury Source: Campus Technology, "Green" New Year’s Resolution for IT Staff, 12/17/2003

eWaste Solutions Buying less or less often; sharing more Using fewer materials in product Responsible disposal Recycling / re-use Note: upgrading less often conflicts with goal of replacing older energy-inefficient equipment. Should manufacturers be responsible for final disposition of products?

Green IT Problem 2: Energy Data center energy consumption accelerating

Enlightened Self-interest: Saving $$

Usage Trends https://www.ntt-review.jp/archive_html/200910/images/sf2_fig01.gif

Rules for Energy Reduction “Do more with less” “Do less with less” “Nothing Gets Better Without Feedback”

“Do more with less” Improve system efficiency Improve cooling efficiency Reduce overhead (software and people) Share resources – and overhead e.g. virtualization This theme applies to more than just energy reduction, e.g. paper use

“Do Less With Less” Or “Do nothing well” – David Culler, UC Berkeley → Minimize power used when ”idle” Requires: Better CPU and support chip designs Better wireless protocols Better operating systems More efficient monitors and power converters Optimal configurations (auto sleep) Idle vs. Sleep vs. Hibernate System must be ready when you are

No Single Culprit http://maemo.org/maemo_release_documentation/maemo4.1.x/power-consumption-piechart.png

“Nothing Gets Better Without Feedback” Preferably in Real-Time! “If you can't measure it, you can't improve it” – Lord Kelvin

Green IT – Practical Solutions Right-size servers and desktop systems Improve data center efficiency Replace old hardware Leverage mobile device trends Leverage high-scale cloud providers Share more! (Virtualize) Get enough sleep! (desktop and server config) Encourage telecommuting and telepresence

Right-sizing the system 7 Watts! http://www.linuxfordevices.com/c/a/News/Toradex-Xiilun-PC-and-Topaz-SBC/

Right-sizing ? 700 watts! http://www.legitreviews.com/images/reviews/766/ati_test_system.jpg

Server Power Trends Intel Roadmap SeaMicro 256-node Atom-based server

Limits of Scale Bigger is better... Except when it isn't High scale spreads fixed costs efficiently High volume benefits from manufacturing learning curves Except when it isn't UPS scale vs. cost: whole datacenter ↔ per server Data center size: step function on switch gear costs Nuclear reactors: traditional ↔ small, modular Entities too big or important to fail (banks, single sources)

Modular Data Centers Microsoft Chicago facility http://i.zdnet.com/blogs/movimiento61.jpg

PUE and DCE http://tjcanning.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/pue1.png?w=347&h=376

PUE Trends http://www.google.com/corporate/datacenter/images/datacenterpue.png

Energy reduction: how many devices? Desktop computer? Laptop computer? Tablet computer? Desktop phone? Cell phone? Is the Motorola Atrix the future?? Thin clients??

Telecommuting / Telepresence http://www.flightglobal.com/blogs/flight-international/747.gif http://images.tmcnet.com/tmc/misc/article-images/Image/Tandberg%20Telepresence%20T3.png

Cloud Computing Leverage Shared resources → more efficiency High-scale, low-cost providers Advanced applications, rapid evolution State-of-the-art data centers and virtualization

UW's Role Is UW part of the problem or the solution? 50,000 students 30,000 faculty/staff 400,000 managed identities 150,000 devices on network 30,000 phones Thousands of servers UW is committed to being part of the solution, alleviating impact on environment through sustainable computing – maximizing energy efficiency and minimizing waste.

Current UW-IT Plans Data center efficiency Cloud services adoption Desktop configuration management Improved UCS tools for virtual meetings Remote Access to Student Lab Software

Conflicting Goals Green goal: power down unused systems Research goal: scavenge cycles IT management goal: do upgrades at night But: Scavenging desktop cycles is not power-efficient Current networks and mgt software can wake up systems

Data Center Initiatives Decommission unneeded services Replace aging, inefficient servers Server virtualization Improve cooling systems

Desktop Management Initiative Deploying IBM's ”Tivoli Endpoint Manager” Desktop power and patch management Enforces common policies for sleeping Provides central reporting for subscribed systems Offers real-time estimates of current power usage Control can be delegated

Cloud Computing Initiative UW Strategy Dual vendor approach for collaboration platforms Many other SAAS apps, e.g. Doodle, Facebook Multiple IAAS vendors (AWS, Azure, Rackspace...) Stay ahead of campus demand Improve compliance risk via partner contracts

Engaging Students Students can be a catalyst for change: They are early adopters of new technologies – Netbooks, Cloud, Facebook, Twitter Green students should . . . Be energy smart Set power option to sleep mode when not active Go Energy Star Purchase Energy Star 4 or greater equipment Print wisely Print only what you need, apply duplex printing, and use recycled content paper when possible Encourage proper recycling
