OriginMark

In collaboration with our partners at molg we have applied the OriginMark approach to data center equipment. We are able to organize and track the hierarchical composition of components into servers, servers into racks, and racks into data centers. We can then use these structures to quantify embodied carbon and active energy use in support of enterprise users, data center operators, or industry-wide efforts such as the iMasons Climate Accord.

In addition to tracking carbon, the OriginMark tags and structures also allow us to track the maintenance history of designs and deployed systems. This improves the effectiveness of service events and better manages parts inventory across customers and product lines. We have deployed OriginMarks in dozens of worldwide data centers, with immediate benefits in service efficiency.
