Closing the gap between ambition and action in achieving sustainability involves more than focusing on the things that matter: It’s about focusing on the things that make a difference – forever.

YOUR DATA CENTRE IS YOUR LARGEST ENERGY DRAIN AND BIGGEST RISK

As data workloads skyrocket, traditional data centres pose a threat to every organisation’s ESG goals through heightened energy demands. This leads to increased greenhouse gas emissions, increased water usage and more frequent replacements, all of which increase Scope 3 indirect emissions.

 

Partnering with CDW and Pure Storage enables businesses to fast-track sustainability initiatives. A next-gen all-flash data storage solution addresses energy concerns. It is designed for efficiency without compromising performance, and reduces energy, water and space usage.

Your data centre is growing, but you can make sure its impact on the environment doesn’t.

CDW UK's Chief Technologist, Rob Sims, explores the latest trends and customer requirements for modern storage solutions – delving into the practical applications of Pure Storage and its ability to meet developing consumer challenges.

THERE’S MORE TO SUSTAINABILITY THAN MEETS THE EYE

Planting trees? Great. Recycling? Fantastic. But what if we told you that you didn’t have to wait years to reap the benefits of your sustainability initiatives? What if you could save the same amount of carbon in just 10 minutes? 

 

To become truly sustainable, businesses need to look beyond the obvious. Businesses need to tear away the surface level and look closely at the infrastructure that drains vast amounts of energy every day, all day: their data centres.

SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS THAT ARE MORE THAN SURFACE DEEP

CDW is helping customers to accelerate their sustainability efforts and to create lasting change by tackling this problem at its source. It does this by lowering the energy consumption and footprint of their data centres - permanently.

ON the road to sustainability? Get there in a flash

Flash is the future of data storage. Flash offers a smaller, faster, more energy-efficient solution to traditional
hard disk drive storage technologies.  

Even better, the lower total cost of ownership of new flash technologies makes replacing HDD systems more affordable, and this can revolutionise the economics and environmental impact of running a data centre.
