Assumptions:

  • All servers have the same hardware configuration
  • 1 watt of heat is produced for every 1 watt of computing power consumed
  • Every watt of heat requires 1 watt to cool
  • Industry average processor utilisation before consolidation = 5%
  • Apex recommended processor utilisation after consolidation = 70%
