You can opt-in to smart metering so that a utility can load balance energy distribution. That data is integrated with the building control system and room schedules to optimize energy consumption. Similar sensor systems exist for rail, sea and air transportation. weather reports).

Virtualizing I/O and converging the transport. Virtualizing I/O means no more stateful NICs and HBAs on the server; rather, the I/O presents itself to the OS as any number of configurable devices/ports, and I/O + data flow over a single physical wire. Transport can be Ethernet, FCoE, Infiniband, or others. Big Data. (6).

And I mean I/O components like NICs and HBAs, not to mention switches, load balancers and cables. Consolidating I/O also implies converged transport, meaning fewer cables (typically only 1 per server, 2 if teamed/redundant). And a converged transport also allows for fewer switches needed on the network. Big Data. (6).
