Abstract:Abstract-Server consolidation plays a key role to mitigate the continuous power increase of datacenters. The recent advent of scale-out applications (e.g., web search, MapReduce, etc.) necessitate the revisit of existing server consolidation solutions due to distinctively different characteristics compared to traditional high-performance computing (HPC), i.e., user interactive, latency critical, and operations on large data sets split across a number of servers. This paper presents a power saving solution for … Show more
“…Based on the observations and motivations above, we presented a server consolidation solution in [56]. First, to efficiently capture correlation information, they present a low-complexity measure for evaluating workload correlation among co-located VMs, and then, developed VM allocation algorithm.…”

“…In addition, Pearson's correlation is also partly inefficient because the value reflects correlation throughout the corresponding time interval because we only require the correlation at (off-)peak utilizations in VM placement. Equation (30) is presented in [56] as a new measure to quantify the correlation between two VMs to overcome the inefficiency of the conventional correlation metric.…”

“…Therefore, these approaches do not work well with non-stationary and fast-changing VM behaviors in particular for scale-out applications. In [22], a power-efficient solution is proposed based on the First-Fit-Decreasing heuristic to separate load correlated VMs especially targeting the characteristics of the scale-out applications. They also exploit server's Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) techniques to achieve further energy savings.…”
This chapter presents an optimization framework to manage green datacenters using multi-level energy reduction techniques in a joint approach. A green datacenter exploits renewable energy sources and active Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) units to reduce the energy intake from the grid while improving its Quality of Service (QoS). At server level, the state-of-the-art correlation-aware Virtual Machines (VMs) consolidation technique allows to maximize server's energy efficiency. At system level, heterogeneous Energy Storage Systems (ESS) replace standard UPSs while a dedicated optimization strategy aims at maximizing the lifetime of the battery banks and to reduce the energy bill, considering the load of the servers. Results demonstrate, under different number of VMs in the system, up to 11.6% energy savings, 10.4% improvement of QoS compared to existing correlation-aware VM allocation schemes for datacenters and up to 96% electricity bill savings.
IntroductionEver increasing demands for computing and growing number of clusters and servers in datacenters have ramped up the power consumption costs as an undesirable effect [21]. On the other hand, traditional fossil fuel concerns, carbon emissions and global warming impose the introduction of more sustainable energy sources and behavioural change of people [41], since 10% of the global consumption of electrical energy has been estimated to be consumed by Information Technology (IT) infrastructures [14].
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
