IBM has built a virtual green data centre inside its ‘property’ in Second Life, the virtual world created by Linden Lab.

IBM virtual data centre in Second Life

The virtual green data centre will feature IBM’s energy efficient servers and storage systems, as well as examples of green data best practices and demos of energy management, virtualization and IBM Tivoli green data centre tools.

Visitors can also learn about the company’s services to help companies assess and improve data centre energy and cooling efficiencies, as well as case studies from IBM green data centre customers.

The 3-D environment will also be staff by ‘live’ sales assistants to answer any questions. You’ll need to sign up with Second Life and look up IBM’s virtual campus – I don’t have the address.
