Isifinyezo sokuqonda

Isikhungo sedatha sesiyingxenye ebalulekile yengqalasizinda yezinkampani njengoba amabhizinisi amaningi manje eselwela ukuzenza abaholi bemakethe emnothweni oqhutshwa idatha. Kodwa-ke, lezi zikhungo zivame ukusebenzisa ugesi omningi, okuholela ekutheni izinkampani eziningi zifune izindlela zokunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwamandla. Lezi zinyathelo zihlanganisa ukuthutha izikhungo zedatha ezindaweni ezipholile kanye nokusebenzisa i-inthanethi Yezinto (IoT) ukulandelela ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni.

Ingqikithi yokukhishwa kwedijithali

Ukwanda kokuduma kwezinhlelo zokusebenza namasevisi asekelwe emafini (isb., I-Software-as-a-Service kanye Nengqalasizinda-njenge-Service) kuholele ekusungulweni kwezikhungo zedatha ezinkulu ezisebenzisa amakhompyutha amakhulu. Lezi zindawo zedatha kufanele zisebenze 24/7 futhi zifake nezinhlelo zokubhekana nezimo eziphuthumayo ukuze kufezwe izimfuno eziphezulu zezinkampani zazo.

Izikhungo zedatha ziyingxenye yesistimu ebanzi ye-sociotechnical elimaza kakhulu imvelo. Cishe amaphesenti angu-10 esidingo samandla emhlabeni wonke avela ku-inthanethi nasezinsizeni ze-inthanethi. Ngo-2030, kubikezelwa ukuthi izinsiza ze-inthanethi kanye namadivayisi azobala amaphesenti angama-20 okusetshenziswa kukagesi emhlabeni jikelele. Lesi silinganiso sokukhula asisimame futhi sisongela ukuphepha kwamandla kanye nemizamo yokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni.

Abanye ochwepheshe bakholelwa ukuthi kunezinqubomgomo zokulawula ezinganele zokwengamela ukukhishwa kwedijithali. Futhi nakuba i-tech titans i-Google, i-Amazon, i-Apple, i-Microsoft, ne-Facebook bezibophezele ukusebenzisa amandla avuselelekayo angamaphesenti angu-100, abagunyaziwe ukuthi balandele izithembiso zabo. Isibonelo, iGreenpeace yagxeka i-Amazon ngo-2019 ngokungafinyeleli umgomo wayo wokunciphisa ibhizinisi embonini kaphethiloli. 

Umthelela ophazamisayo

Ngenxa yokwenyuka kwezindleko zezimali nezemvelo zezikhungo zedatha, amanyuvesi kanye namafemu ezobuchwepheshe athuthukisa izinqubo zedijithali ezisebenza kahle kakhulu. I-Stanford University ibheke ukwenza ukufunda ngomshini kube “luhlaza” ngezindlela ezingasebenzisi amandla amancane kanye nezikhathi zokuqeqesha. Phakathi naleso sikhathi, i-Google ne-Facebook zakha izikhungo zedatha ezindaweni ezinobusika obunzima, lapho imvelo inikeza ukupholisa kwamahhala kwemishini ye-IT. Lezi zinkampani futhi zicubungula ama-computer chips awonga amandla. Isibonelo, abacwaningi bathole ukuthi imiklamo eqondene nenethiwekhi ye-neural ingase ibe namandla ngokuphindwe kahlanu lapho ifundisa i-algorithm kunokusebenzisa ama-chips alungiselelwe ukucutshungulwa kwezithombe.

Ngaleso sikhathi, iziqalo ezimbalwa ziye zanqampuna ukusiza izinkampani ukuphatha ukukhishwa kwedijithali ngamathuluzi ahlukahlukene nezisombululo. Isixazululo esisodwa esinjalo ukulandelela ukukhishwa kwe-IoT. Ubuchwepheshe be-IoT obukwazi ukubona ukukhishwa kwe-GHG buthola ukunakwa okwengeziwe kubatshalizimali njengoba bebona amandla alobu buchwepheshe ukuze banikeze idatha enembile neyimbudumbudu. Isibonelo, i-Project Canary, inkampani ye-Denver-based data analytics ehlinzeka ngohlelo lokuqapha ukukhishwa okuqhubekayo okusekelwe ku-IoT, inyuse u-USD $111 wezigidi ngezimali ngoFebhuwari 2022. 

Elinye ithuluzi lokulawula ukungcola kwedijithali ukulandela umthombo wamandla avuselelekayo. Uhlelo lulandelela ukuqoqwa nokuqinisekiswa kwedatha yamandla aluhlaza, njengaleyo etholwe kuzitifiketi zesibaluli samandla kanye nezitifiketi zamandla avuselelekayo. Izinkampani ezifana ne-Google ne-Microsoft nazo ziba nentshisekelo kakhulu ezitifiketini zesibaluli samandla esisekelwe esikhathini esivumela "amandla angenayo i-carbon 24/7." 

Imithelela yokukhishwa kwedijithali

Imithelela ebanzi yokukhishwa kwedijithali ingase ihlanganise: 

• Izinkampani ezengeziwe ezakha izikhungo zedatha zendawo esikhundleni sezikhungo ezinkulu ezimaphakathi ukuze zonge amandla futhi zisekele ukusebenzisa ikhompuyutha.
• Amazwe amaningi asezindaweni ezibandayo asebenzisa ithuba lokuthuthela kwezikhungo zedatha ezindaweni ezipholile ukuze athuthukise umnotho wawo wasendaweni.
• Ucwaningo olwandisiwe nokuncintisana ukwakha ama-chip ekhompyutha akonga amandla noma angenawo amandla amancane.
• Ohulumeni abasebenzisa umthetho we-digital emissions kanye nokugqugquzela izinkampani zasekhaya ukuthi zehlise imikhondo yazo yedijithali.
• Iziqalo eziningi ezinikeza izixazululo zokuphatha ukukhishwa kwedijithali njengoba izinkampani ziya ngokuya zidingeka ukuthi zibike ukubusa kwazo kwedijithali kubatshalizimali abasimeme.
• Ukwenyuswa kokutshalwa kwezimali kuzixazululo zamandla avuselelekayo, i-automation, kanye nobuhlakani bokwenziwa (AI) ukuze kongiwe amandla.

Imibuzo okufanele icatshangelwe

• Inkampani yakho ikuphatha kanjani ukukhishwa kwayo kwedijithali?
• Ohulumeni bangayenza kanjani enye imikhawulo kusayizi wokukhishwa kwedijithali kwamabhizinisi?
