“…It also helps to decrease costs associated with technical expenses due to reducing "energy consumption". The main difference between GCC with "traditional cloud computing" technologies is that cloud computing tools have a major issue of extra costs due to power consumption [19]. Another differentiating factor has been observed to be "carbon emission" and GCC reduces both of these aspects.…”

Cloud computing refers to utilising different computer systems at the same time. GCC can be regarded as a differentiated cloud computing system that helps to promote environmental sustainability. The present study has been carried out to evaluate the impact of using Green Cloud Computing or GCC for fostering environmental sustainability. The research has been conducted by following a secondary qualitative data collection method and the collected data has been analysed by thematic analysis. The Materials and Methods section consists of the appropriate methods and techniques chosen by the researcher. The findings of the study suggest that the functions of GCC highly differ from "traditional cloud computing technology" and help to foster sustainable practices. The main contributions of GCC have been observed to be reducing energy and power consumption, increasing "energy efficiency", decreasing costs and increasing operational efficiency. Therefore, this technology can be considered to be among the technologies with an effective impact on the surrounding environment. The following research has been aimed to assess the influence and effectiveness of GCC in order to foster sustainability. It has been observed that utilising GCC can help to integrate potential tools and systems for encouraging sustainability within the operations and can reduce operational costs by reducing energy usage. Though it consists of several drawbacks, such as expensive implementation costs and comparatively low knowledge among the employees, promoting effective strategies and practices can prevent these issues. Integration of GCC is crucial for lowering the carbon footprint of a business and increasing the efficiency of technology and systems.

“…It has fewer SLA violations which are important for maintaining QoS.In addition, the use of the DVFS technique in simulation environments such as CloudSim [9] shows that data centers can consume less energy, which provides more economical solutions. [4]. All the above-mentioned works mainly use the migration of virtual machines or bare metal containers but they do not deal with hybrid virtualization where the placement strategy plays an important role.…”

Currently, many businesses are using cloud computing to obtain an entire IT infrastructure remotely while delegating its management to a third party. The provider of this architecture ensures the operation and maintenance of the services while offering management capabilities via web consoles.These providers offer solutions based on bare metal or virtualization platforms (mainly virtual machines). Recently, a new type of virtualization-based on containerization technology has emerged. Containers can be deployed on bare metal servers or in virtual machines. The migration of virtual machines (VMs) and Containers in Dynamic Resource Management (DRM) is a crucial factor in minimizing the operating costs of data centers by reducing their energy consumption and subsequently limiting their impact on climate change.In this article, live migration for both types of virtualization will be studied. for that, container placement and migration algorithms are proposed, which takes into account the QoS requirements of different users in order to minimize energy consumption. Thus, a dynamic approach is suggested based on a threshold of RAM usage for host and virtual machines in the data center to avoid unnecessary power consumption. In this paper, the proposed work is compared with VM/Container placement and migration methods, the results of the experiment indicate that using container migration instead of VMs demonstrates a reduction in power consumption, and also reduces the migration time which impacts QoS and reduces SLA violation.
