Heterogeneity and thermal aware adaptive heuristics for energy efficient consolidation of virtual machines in infrastructure clouds

作者:

Highlights:

• Metrics to classify servers in a heterogeneous cloud environment based on server's power consumption and performance.

• Adaptive heterogeneous and thermal aware heuristic approaches for energy efficient dynamic consolidation of VMs.

• Accounted for server processor sleep states and state transition time latencies in a heterogeneous cloud environment.

• Hybrid heuristics approach, which works with both homogeneous and heterogeneous server cloud.

• Extensive simulation-based evaluation and analysis of the proposed algorithms.
