Learn about the new SNIA Emerald V1.0 Device Power Measurement Test Specification, the tools and methods to measure an enterprise data storage device. A useful new metric for system supply chain and hypervisor vendors to evaluate devices with enterprise data enter workloads. In the near future, some regulatory bodies may cross-reference in their regional energy conservation programs. Learn about the changes as part of SNIA Emerald V5.0 System Power Measurement Test Specification, the tools and methods to measure an enterprise data storage system. A cross-referenced specification by the USA EPA Energy Star program and the EU Lot 9 Commission for vendors to test, report and submit enterprise data center workloads metrics as part of procurement requirements set by regulatory bodies as part of their regional energy conservation programs.
Raise awareness of the two specifications, how to utilize the specifications, setup a test environment, and conduct tests Learn about the current regional regulatory bodies and their programs, how they cross-reference these specifications Learn how to become involved in future TWG group work Learn how to tailor workloads to perform more inhouse testing for specific customers.
