Ron sits down and talk with Doug Alger about exactly what is a green data center. It's not just about having an environmentally friendly data center, but keeping the equipment cool without having to hock the family jewels to do so.
Like a Disaster Recovery Plan, this isn't something that will be a one-shot deal, but will be need to be revisited periodically as your needs and technology change. Bonus: Listen at the end of the podcast for a special offer for the first 10 listeners of this podcast from Ron's friends at Cisco Press. (24:29)
