Global Trend Moving towards Green IT and virtualization: Ken Research

Posted on 26 April 2017 by KenResearch defense and security ,

Ken research has recently announced report titled “Strategic Focus Report-Green IT & Virtualization”. The report analyses the current trends, drivers, and inhibitors impacting the green IT & virtualization market. The report outlines the evolution of green IT & virtualization technologies, and identifies and assesses the best performing vendors in the market. This report also presents view of the revenue opportunities in the virtualization market through to 2020, highlighting the market size and growth by technology, geography, sectors, and size band. Moreover, following in-depth ICT decision maker surveys, the report outlines enterprises' investment priorities in the green IT & virtualization segment.

A data center consumes the huge amount of power which be used to power thousands of homes. Traditional servers  have a single application using a  single operating system. The applications anything, be it an e-commerce applications, business applications, email solution, security softwares and databases each running on operating system  such as linux, Windows, Ubuntu and Unix. This increases the cost of IT infrastructure a lot by spending of hardware, space, operation and maintenance Apart from that, the average usage of these physical servers is merely 5 to 10 percent, hence almost 90 percent of these servers’s capacity is not being used. That implies that most of the company’s investment on servers is getting wasted with such low efficiency rate. This. huge levels of power consumption is compelling the  data centers and environmentalists look for alternate ways so as to reduce the power used and make data centers far more energy efficient.

To manage this cost and optimize the Return on Investment (ROI) Green IT has been introduced, which makes the use of virtualization technology. A physical server has a CPU, memory and other applications running on operating systems. Virtualization on the other hand is   creates a virtual (rather than actual) version   an operating system (OS), server, storage device or the network resources. This allows a part of hardware to run several multiple operating system images simultaneously as the virtualized server now creates multiple virtual environment inside of it and each behaves just like a physical server. These virtualized server environments work side by side so that now multiple applications can run in single machine and the efficiency goes as 95%.

The virtual environment behaves like a separate unit and hence provides your data full protection.

 

Virtualization has   many advantages

  • One virtual server can work as good as 15- 20 servers and thus runs on a lesser number of servers, helps to reduce the overall energy used for the data center and for its cooling.
  • Also, as the number of servers reduces, the space used by them also decreases.
  • Further, virtualization removes the planned downtime by combining virtual machines from one physical server to another
  • Resource allocation can be monitored and managed in a better way
  • Virtualization increases a server group’s ability to share resources tremendously.

 

Thus, energy saved per server is equal to approximately 7000 Kilo Watt hours per year, which is enormous. With such tremendous potential for energy savings, Virtualization is the need of the hour.

Monetary sanctions negatively affected investors appetite in Russia ICT Sector : Ken Research

Posted on 06 December 2016 by KenResearch Technology and Telecom ,

Respondents showcases that a sizeable number of the respondents willing to decrease their ICT budget slightly or significantly.

The current adverse monetary state of Russia has its toll over range of ventures affecting the ICT investments in the nation.

Customer support, service support & help desk management are few IT functions that are predominantly outsourced by most of the respondents.

 

Ken research announced its recent production on “ICT investment trends in Russia; Enterprise ICT spending patterns through to the end of 2017,” offers insights on  ICT budgets across the core segments of enterprise ICT expenditure such as hardware, software, IT services, communications, and consulting. The report delineates the core technologies that enterprises are putting resources into, including business intelligence, portability management, green IT & virtualization, and web of things. The study of 98 Russian enterprises highlights the way to deal with acquiring technology embraced by endeavours in Russia. The report comprehends how ICT rubles are being allocated by Russian enterprises in specific geographies and size bands. Moreover the publication provides an in-depth analysis of the Russian enterprises investment priorities, new budget plans, outsourced ICT functions, factors affecting such decisions. This report offers an overview of the changes in customers' priorities and the current strategic objectives of Russian enterprises which will further help every individual from regional to foreign to realign their strategies.

Russia has an upper-center income blended economy with state proprietorship in strategic zones of the economy. Market changes in the 1990s privatized a lot of Russian industry and agriculture, with striking special exceptions to this privatization happening in the vitality and defence related segments. Russia's incomprehensible geography is an essential determinant of its financial activity, with a few sources assessing that Russia contains more than 30 percent of the world's natural assets.

In 2015, the Russian economy was ranked sixth largest across the globe by PPP and twelfth largest at market exchange rates. Between 2000 and 2012 Russia's energy exports intensified a rapid growth in the standard of living, with real disposable income rising by 160% which is accounted to more than sevenfold increase according to US monetisation. All this while, the unemployment and poverty more than halved but in 2015, the unemployment rate grew from 5.2 in 2014 to 5.6 in 2015.

The Russian economy experienced two noteworthy shocks in 2014, barely avoiding recession with moderate development of 0.6%. The main shock was the sharp decrease in oil prices amid the third and final quarter of 2014, uncovering Russia’s outrageous dependence on worldwide product cycles. After fluctuating within a tight band near USD 105 for every barrel from 2011-2013, crude oil costs ended 2014 at less than USD 60 for each barrel. The second shock was the monetary sanctions resulting from geopolitical tensions, which contrarily influenced investor appetite for Russian endeavours. Capital flights and high inflation exacerbate Russia’s monetary burdens as the economy enrolled the steepest compression since 2009 contracting 3.7% in the full year 2015. 

The monetary impact is reflected on the investment trends of the Russian organizations which witnesses a downward trend. Most of the respondents outsource few of the IT services predominantly to improve the efficiency of all these services which include customer support, service support, help desk and management.
