Data Center Migration- Any techie who has spent a significant amount of time in Information Technology and working with large enterprises has heard of the word Data Center Migration. Quite likely you would have been a part of a migration project to the Cloud. Data Center Migration projects have been around for a long time and long before the word Cloud Data Center burst into the scene.

Mostly migration projects talk about cost optimization or cost savings. Cost savings is what drives most of these projects among decision makers. There is however a second “Sustainability” aspect as well. Data Centers consume a lot of electricity. Like so much that the world wide consumption of electricity by data centers was estimated to be about 415 TWH in 2022. For context, the total Electricity consumption by the entire nation of France in the same year was about 426 TWH. And this is before the AI boom led by ChatGPT and the like. This usage is only slated to increase.
