By 2CRSI
From France
Maturity stage TRL 9 / CRI 3-4 - Commercial Scale Up / Multiple commercial Applications

2CRSi is actively participating in the redesign of hardware technology to meet the growing demands of IT infrastructure. Its strength resides in the understanding of customer needs: servers are streamlined and customized to ensure performance whilst reducing energy consumption. Compared to the traditional 19’’ server size, the 21’’ form factor of the OCtoPus solution pushes the density of its servers to the next level. Mutualizing certain components makes it possible to reduce energy consumption by up to 23% compared to equivalent conventional systems. This strong commitment to Green IT gives clients a major competitive advantage, bearing in mind that energy can account for up to around 40% of their server operating costs. At 2CRSi, it is believed that IT can be reconciled with the planet.

The Environmental Benefits

  • 18 big mutualized fans at the level of the rack increase energy savings
  • Improved space efficiency and thermal dissipation in the servers make it possible to reduce power consumption by up to 23% compared to equivalent 19'' conventional systems
  • Servers are independent from the racks, which integrate fans and power inputs and can be 100% reused in case of a server upgrade

The Financial Benefits

  • Mutualised fans and power supplies allow for better space efficiency and an improved thermal dissipation of the components inside the servers, with a positive impact on the components' lifetime
  • With the 21'' server solution, up to €3985 savings per year (decrease in fans power consumption) compared to traditional 19" solutions
