Your County IT Department Is Thinking Green To Save Taxpayers Money
We are going virtual. Slowly and steadily we are replacing power hungry desktop computers with energy efficient virtual terminals using blade server technology. A recent study shows that physical desktop pc's on average use 250 watts compared to 45 watts used by virtual terminals.

But why stop there? We also replaced more than 80 percent of our servers with virtual servers. This creates a more manageable infrastructure and saves even more energy while eliminating physical bare metal servers.

Looking to save even more money, we are hard at work eliminating most of our connecting network lines. We are replacing them with low cost yet powerful point-to-point VPN connections, saving Lackawanna County over $70,000 per year.
