Virtual Strategy Magazine interviews Ken Oestreich, Director of Product Management & Marketing for Cassatt about Active Power Management.
Cassatt's new Active Power Management technology safely and intelligently powers servers off when they are not needed or idle. Controlled by polices set by administrators and optimized automatically, the technology continually optimizes power consumption based on the time of day, demand, curtailments imposed by power companies, or other facilities-based events. In early tests with Active Power Management, customers have experienced up to 50 percent reduction in their power usage, simply by allowing Active Power Management to turn off servers when idle, and then confirm a successful power-up when they're needed again.
