ABSTRACT

Cloud computing is ahighly sought trend in the current time which involves the usages of resources on demand, virtualization, and many more computational demands. With the exorbitant demand of users of cloud and increasing complexity of problems, many resources are required to maintain the cloud. To adhere to the increasing requests we need ahuge amount of natural, financial and technical resources such as land, money, datacenters, etc. Maintaining huge data over cloud needs deployment of a huge number of datacenters which absorbs electricity which in turn produce ahuge amount of heat. This heat produced will be contributing to the Poisonousgasses such as carbon-di-oxide by use of coolant at data center and servers [1]. Without properly optimized management of the cloud computing is not a worth practice because it will add to the expenditures of the organization. Proper resource management should be done in anoptimized manner such that all entities get sufficient resources for their computation. For properly optimized management resource management, there is needed to imbibe green cloud computing principles. Green cloud computing provides provisions to make cloud energy and cost efficient. This paper provides methods and techniques to make energy efficient cloud using Green Cloud computing principles.
