Yahoo! cuts data center cooling costs by one-fifth using cold aisle containment

Yahoo! and SynapSense teamed up to use cold aisle containment in a Yahoo! data center, cutting cooling costs by 21% and reducing the facility's power usage effectiveness (PUE) from 1.52 to 1.44. Oh, and it's saving the company about a half-million dollars a year.
