Awhile ago, an RSP staff member (and I cannot remember who) had mentioned that more details would be coming soon about RSP's green hosting initiatives. Yet, we have not heard anything else on this. Just wondering where this stands?

I remembered the post, it was Nick

I'm not keen on this anti-spam thing on this forum, I did place a link to the post, it was by Nick in the "Happy Birthday Nick" thread

The Stealthy One, I do not have any information about this, but perhaps Nick will read the thread and will tune in with more info.
The Loon, the forum anti-spam filter tends to filter posts that contain just links or links with very little text to them (like just a sentence). It is true that the anti-spam filter produces some false positives occasionally, but it also catches over 95% of the actual spam. Typically you can avoid being filter by the anti-spam filter, if your posts are a little longer. Also, when posting links to other threads in this forum, you could use the code for linking threads (check this link for more info on how to post thread links), instead of code for URL links, this should also help you in avoiding the forum anti-spam filter.Originally posted by The Loon View PostComment

The green hosting is nothing more than a total optimization of the hardware and software usage.
One example. If you set up a cpanel software on a server (no matter how powerful that server is), the maximum average usage of the CPU or the HDDs will be probably 20-40% in terms of effectiveness.
Our real time test platform optimizes the connection between the hardware and the software. Thus we are able to host from 50 000 to 90 000 clients per server offering them speed and re ability that a 1 000 clients server with cpanel can only dream about.
I know this sounds not very real or at least it is far away from today's hosting reality. That is absolutely true and when the load balanced cluster system gets stable enough we will start offering it to the clients or our resellers.
The servers that are using this load balanced cluster need up to 50% less power supply, thus the heat distribution is relatively smaller too and about 5-6 servers can do the job few times more quicker than 100+ cpanel servers.
As you probably know we have cpanel reseller program and run cpanel servers too. We know cpanel and we know our new cluster with a smart load distribution.
The secret is NOT only inside the proper load distribution. The secret is how the software and the hardware interacts with each other.
It is like todays petrol engines. They have only 40% effectiveness. The rest 60% of the energy is simply lost forever...
We have learned how to waste only 20% of the energy every server can give us and that is something
This is why I called the project Green. Because it spares a lot of energy, works fast and small number of servers can host the Half Globe

I found this,
Is this the same thing?Comment

More efficent use of servers and saves electricity. You can save money and electricity good deal.
I first thought they would be buying power from alternate energy suppliers but read the post above.Comment
