Green Hosting
We believe in providing a best in class service by delivering high performance, flexible virtual server hosting. As an organization, we also feel strongly about being eco-friendly. We are fortunate that both our service and our goals have such synergy.
The amount varies across the United States based upon the methods each utility uses to generate electricity (coal, gas fired, hydro, solar). In California where our primary data center is located, 1 kilowatt of electricity generates approximately .8 pounds of carbon dioxide.
The average, sustained power draw of one of our host servers is approximately 158 kwh/month, or 126.4 pounds of carbon dioxide/month. By using our service instead of collocating a server, using a dedicated server, or another, less efficient provider not only will you save on cost. With the average consolidation ratio (Using virtualiazation technology to combine what used to be many power hungry servers into one, energy saving server) in our plans, using our service saves approximately 3,033 pounds (or 1.5 tons) of carbon dioxide per month per account.
Help us make the world a better place the generations to come!
