Green cloud is a buzzword that refers to the potential environmental benefits that information technology (IT) services delivered over the Internet can offer society. The term combines the words green -- meaning environmentally friendly -- and cloud, the traditional symbol for the Internet and the shortened name for a type of service delivery model known as cloud computing.
The Benefits:
Green cloud computing is a solution that allows users to utilize all the benefits of cloud storage while also decreasing its adverse effects. The ultimate goal of green cloud computing is to reduce the power consumption of large data centers (Amazon, Google, eBay, etc.).
Green cloud computing aims to include energy-efficient technology, environmentally sustainable production practices and improved waste and recycling procedures.
Green Design: Designing energy-efficient servers, infrastructure, computers, software applications and other digital devices will reduce the amount of energy consumed in the future
Green Production: Minimizing energy and waste by recycling and re purposing equipment during the production process of digital devices can contribute to a more sustainable environment.
Green Usage: Reducing the amount of energy a product utilizes while in use can reduce up to 27% of energy.
