Data Storage and Cold Storage - Green HVAC for sustainble enterprise.

Data Storage, Archival and Retrieval is a mega challenge. The Age of Multimedia and Cloud computing is driving data volumes to insane heights. Compliance laws are driving the need to store data for 7 more years.

Data Archival company has a bright future if there is a simple, safe and scalable way for protecting and preserving data.

There may be a business opportunity in building Long term - low SLA (within 24 hrs) recovery storage.


The Need for Cold storage for Food preservation is also a national priority for increasing profitability for the farmers and  reduced shortages of food.


A hybrid Data Storage and Cold Storage facility based on Geothermal Technology to reduce energy consumption and create sustainable systems.

As the Geothermal systems are very capital intensive, it may be an interesting way to Cross Subsidize food storage  with Data Storage.

This may be a practical with indian companies innovating in Geo-themal technology. I am impressed by GREENPRENEURS - Arun Shenoy (left) and Mandar Kaprekar and their company COMPANY Green India Building Systems and Services. Started in April 2010

That looks like you've got HVAC and data all wrapped up in one! Seems like a great system, particularly for a business or office. I wish we could do the same at our house! Thiago | http://www.coolairmechanicalinc.com/service-2/

All of these methods are still rudimentery to lookup and locate attributes, features and functions of devices. Most devices serve a useful purpose. some of them are misused to inflict pain and damage in the digital world. Clear knowledge attributes, features and functions of devices can hel in reducing the risk and help us in responding to misuse of these devices.

Blueprint for a new ITaaS Service Provider

Cloud computing is raising the expectation on the agility, availability and access to sophisticated computing and communication platforms for small and medium business. Today most critical IT components for running a successful business are available as SaaS, PaaS or IaaS platforms. There is little value in recreating all these services from the scratch by a new age service provider. It may be prudent to create a skeletal platform for essential services while taking a position of services broker to organize a rich portfolio by aggregating important services into tightly knit IT-as-a –Service offering. The initial target market for such a service provider is Small and Medium Business. We will review aspirations and capabilities needed to serve the ever increasing expectations of small and medium customers from a modern service provider. The Vision, Strategy and Execution plan to create a modern Information Technology as a Service (ITaaS) provider infrastructure is described on the...

RAINing Appliances in the Clouds

Appliances always had a soft-corner in Data center and cloud strategy. My Brush with appliances started in early 2000. We were looking at soultions for traffic management and billing for small ISP. the solutions with software and hardware were quite complicated. We came across small company out of Israel called Allot Networks (www.allot.com). they did a good job in a simple way. Later at NVIDIA, I was exposed Netapp for NAS storage which quickly pivoted into block storage with iscsi. they literally gave away the iscsi protocol license for free with the box for a long time. On the network side, my Exposure was with F5 networks while managing nvidia.com. We were facing scalability issues during product launhces and driver release announcements. We tried newer players such as Array Networks and Netscaler while they were in Beta. We ended up assisting and supporting Netscaler with our feedback to evolve the product to have in-memory caching. In VMworld 2013, I have seen a emergence ...
