In today’s climate change oriented world, its all about reducing energy consumption. The theory is simple, Don’t move around much and keep resources close to you so you save on energy transportation costs. You know the feeling, after you just moved from one home to another, very tired. Well, take a look around, life is more about moving things around than you think. You move groceries from the grocery store, that the truck driver has moved from the warehouse, that the warehouse has moved from the farm. Considering that the average person requires somewhere in the order of 35 pounds of food per week, not to mention water, no wonder you are tired and energy hungry. Don’t lament though, 2000 years ago, water had to be hand carried in heavy clay pots from the well in the hot desert sun.
Today, not many complain about carrying 50 pound clay vases from a water well that’s a mile away. Instead its more about how much heat your car, computer, stove, washing machine and the cloud that controls them dissipates. Not to mention how much heat was dissipated to manufacture those products.
This problem has been the focus of attention of semiconductor companies that produce data center chips and edge chips. The theory is that if you move data centers closer to the data consumer, into smaller data centers,, edges, you will lower energy costs. Today’s data centers are monstrous energy hungry enterprises. Estimates are that the movement of data to and from data centers and the processing of that data requires one percent of the world’s energy production. Adding that up in terms of pounds of coal, barrels of oil or acres of solar cell panels, all means more energy to move those items around. A lot of work. . Mind you, much of that data is in reality the data to run interactive video games and watch videos. All of which is part of world culture today.
So now that the problem has been established, what is a better solution. The latest news from semiconductor companies is that its neuromorphic chips that offer secure data processing close to home. These chips take sensor data from your home and process it to reduce your energy bill and suggest ways to reduce your energy costs. They also process all your video and gaming data locally, around the corner, in an edge data center, saving on energy costs.
These new neuromorphic chips don’t need a lot of space, the latest neuromorphic PC cloudless servers fit in the palm of your hand and can be stored in an apartment complexes managers office or very easily in a desk in an office building.
So what does all this mean to you the consumer. It means in the end lower phone bills, lower monthly internet bills, very powerful graphics and high quality and dependable video viewing, more so guaranteed reliable Super Bowl games on game day with no delays. Cloudfree technology is climate friendly, inexpensive and Super Bowl friendly technology.
