Abstract Details

2013, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Computer Science and Engineering.
Data centers are assets of high value in the enterprise, but are currently being devalued because their actual lifetimes are falling well short of their predicted lifetimes, due to the rapid growth of peak power consumption, which enterprises have not been able to control effectively. In order to address this devaluation of the data center, based on a review of relevant research, it is argued that enterprises must reduce the growth of peak power consumption both by increasing server utilization percentages during peak power demand periods, and by decreasing idle penalties. These objectives can be accomplished by using a combination of server consolidation, more effective collocation of applications, server virtualization, dynamic voltage and frequency scaling, and CPU sleep states.
