The SPECpower team released two major versions of its SERT and Chauffeur WDK tools in 2017.

SERT 2.0 features a single-value metric, reduced run time, improved automation and testing, and greater device and platform support. SERT is emerging as an international standard for agencies seeking improvements in server efficiency.

Chauffeur WDK 2.0 is a major update of the industry-standard software that simplifies workload development for measuring server performance in relation to energy efficiency. Version 2.0 features greater ease-of-use, more functionality and faster results processing.
