Zusammenfassung
The electric power is one of the major operating expenses in data centers. Rising and varying
energy costs induce the need of further solutions to use energy efficiently. The first steps to
improve efficiency have already been accomplished by applying virtualization technologies.
In this paper, we address the problem of energy efficiency in data centers. Efficient and scalable
power usage for data centers is needed. We present different approaches to improve efficiency and
carbon footprint as background information. We propose an in-progress idea to extend the
possibilities of power control in data centers and to improve efficiency. Our approach is based on
virtualization technologies and live-migration to improve resource utilization by comparing
different effects on virtual machine permutation on physical servers. It delivers an efficiencyaware
VM Placement by assessing different virtual machine permutation.
