In 2010, data centers (servers, cooling, and other electrical infrastructure) were responsible for 1.1–1.5% of electrical energy consumption worldwide and 1.7–2.2% in the United States. One estimate is that total energy consumption for information and communications technology saves more than 5 times

Thereafter, the pub-sub server forwards matching messages to the clients 917:. These will normally have very stable power and Internet and increased security.

Any computer program that needs more CPU power and RAM than a personal computer can probably afford. The client must be a networked computer; otherwise, there would be no client-server model.

The average utilization of a server in the early 2000s was 5 to 15%, but with the adoption of virtualization this figure started to increase to reduce the number of servers needed.
