Tabor Communications Debuts Green Computing Report


SAN DIEGO, CA. November 7, 2012 – Tabor Communications Inc., (TCI) a leading international media, advertising, and communications company, today announced the debut of its newest online news and information portal covering energy-efficient and eco-friendly computing in the datacenter, Green Computing Report. Published in partnership with the Washington D.C.-based Green IT Council, Green Computing Report will serve the IT industry as a primary resource for news and information on the latest advancements taking place in energy efficient technologies designed for the data center.

The green computing publication will join Tabor Communications' data-intensive computing portfolio that includes HPCwire, Datanami, Digital Manufacturing Report, and HPC in the Cloud. Award winning journalist Richard Brandt, former Business Week tech correspondent and Editor-in-Chief of Upside magazine plays a lead role as the Managing Editor of Green Computing Report.

“Without well defined, consistent, and universally accepted best practices, policies, and direction, the IT industry cannot effectively continue to deliver a uniform model for enhancing energy efficiency and sustainability in today’s datacenter,” said Raj Kosuri, Executive Director for the Green IT Council. “What has been lacking is a comprehensive communication model dedicated to providing clear goals and guidance for improving overall efficiency and sustainability throughout datacenters worldwide, many of which are now being built in some of the most ecologically sensitive areas on earth. We believe that the introduction of Green Computing Report is a definitive step towards keeping datacenter managers current on the latest developments and trends on key issues such as facility location and design, systems efficiencies, and e-waste.”

“As datacenters continue to grow in size, capability, and capacity, energy efficiency, from a business operations and ecological standpoint, becomes a critical management concern,” said Tom Tabor, CEO and Founder of Tabor Communications. “Our mission in introducing Green Computing Report is to inform and educate IT professionals, managers, industry, and government on the need for deploying eco-friendly solutions on a global level. Green Computing Report will cover first-hand the emerging trends, technologies, and challenges associated with building more eco-efficient data centers, and how they influence the larger business and environmental contexts facing the IT industry today.”
