Sustainability Metrics - Infrastructure Utilization Efficiency (IUE) considerations.pdf

1、PUE(Power Utilization Efficiency)defines the power utilization efficiency of the data center as a ratio of Total Data Center Energy Consumption over Total IT Energy Consumption.Data Center Efficiency Metrics(DCEM)workstream under sustainability project is working on defining IT Infrastructure Utiliz
