Comment: The official webs tie and brief mentions in databases are not enough to prove notability. See WP:NCORP. BenLinus1214talk 20:30, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: Still no third-party sources. Please be sure to address the problems indicated by a reviewer before resubmitting and take a look at what constitutes a reliable source. — kikichugirl speak up! 04:47, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: The subject is probably notable, but no third-party references are included. Also, the use of lengthy lists (e.g. timeline) is discouraged. If there is additional information that can be provided in prose that is preferred. Eugene_Green_Energy_Standard may provide an example to follow. LaMona (talk) 02:35, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
SNIA Emerald Specification
The SNIA Emerald™ Program Power Efficiency Measurement Specification[1], is a storage specification developed and maintained by the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) and cross-referenced by the Environmental Protection Agency’s EnergyStar program[2]. The specification consists of a storage types taxonomy, system under test workload and energy measurement method, measured metrics for active and idle operational states, and presence tests for capacity optimization technologies. The measured metric data is generated through the use of well-defined standard testing and data reduction procedures prescribed in the SNIA Emerald™ Specification[3]. This data quantifies storage system power efficiency for typical types of enterprise datacenter workloads and helps IT professionals make storage platform selections as part of an overall Green IT and sustainability objective.
SNIA’s ongoing collaboration with the EPA has helped to shape the Energy Star Data Center Storage (DCS) Specification[4]. The EPA DCS specification cross-references the SNIA Emerald™ Specification as the test and measurement methodology.[5]. [6]
