New servers use twenty percent of the energy and fifty percent of the space of conventional servers
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Low Power Company, Inc. (Lopoco) announced today the commercial availability of its line of high-efficiency servers, which can save enterprises and small businesses more than 50% off their data center operating costs.
“We started Lopoco because we saw a void in the server market”
At up to $30M per megawatt, IT compute capacity is a major capital investment for any company. Built on proven technology without costly or custom chips, Lopoco’s servers provide substantial energy and cost savings, as compared to the majority of servers currently on the market. Lopoco’s servers preserve business continuity and compliance with conventional form factors, CPUs, and server options already familiar to customers.
