INX Inc., (NASDAQ:INXI)
announced today that it has entered into a contract with E-Waste
Recovery Services of Northern California for a server recycling program.
Virtualization Technology has enabled companies to more efficiently
deliver business applications by consolidating traditional data center
resources and increasing efficiency in the way applications are
delivered. The reduction in the number of servers used in an enterprise
data center that has been virtualized is generally between 50 and 90
percent. This results in an excess of unused servers after a
virtualization project. Although this is a good problem to have,
companies are now challenged to responsibly dispose of legacy equipment
no longer needed. INX is entering into formal relationships with
organizations to help clients remove unwanted hardware, while positively
impacting the local community and environment. One such partnership is
with E-Waste Recovery Services, who will be covering the Northern
California regional needs.
The relationship will create an opportunity for INX to offer a
complimentary service that creates a true win-win scenario for everyone
involved. Through the partnership with E-Waste Recovery Services,
displaced equipment is first recycled and then donated to not-for-profit
entities for their use. Mark Hilz, President of INX stated, “This green
initiative is a great opportunity for our clients to positively impact
their local communities while being environmentally conscious and we are
pleased to help facilitate the effort.” Dave Claugus, President of
E-Waste Recovery Services commented, “We are looking to associate
ourselves with companies like INX who are leaders in virtualization
services. We are able to offer a service to their clients while helping
the Bay Area Community.” The first engagement will create several
pallets of equipment from a recently deployed data center virtualization
project in Hayward, California.
