The rapid growth of digital data and the increasing demand for storage solutions present challenges and sustainability opportunities. This session will explore how storage developers can embrace circular economy principles to reduce the environmental impact of storage devices and address supply chain constraints.

Key Takeaways:

Open Compute Project’s (OCP) Sustainability Project was established in ~2020 as Datacenter Sustainability gained more and more importance. It has since spawned multiple workstreams working on different aspects of Sustainability in devices and are essential to enabling circular economy in Datacenter. Sustainable design encompasses a multitude of categories ranging from reduced power usage, power telemetry, carbon efficiency metrics, elongating lifespan of competitive use or telemetry for carbon metrics.
