ABSTRACT:
An illustrative power-efficient data center is described for operating in an uncontrolled environment in one scenario. The data center includes an air moving system that applies unconditioned air to its resource items. The resource items are stripped down to provide a substantially minimum set of components for performing the data center's core functions. Various illustrative techniques for managing a power-efficient data center are also described.
