The Royal Horticultural Society boasts the “best horticultural library in the world,” totaling 200,000 images. In digitizing their thousands of photographs, “the society needed a storage medium that would grow along with its needs, but that would not demand huge amounts of power up front.” In choosing Compellent, the Society showed they really do have a green thumb – they greened their data center and reported savings of over £37,000.
