Abstract: Techniques for managing energy use of a computing deployment are provided. In one embodiment, a computer system can establish a performance model for one or more components of the computing deployment, where the performance model models a relationship between one or more tunable parameters of the one or more components and an end-to-end performance metric, and where the end-to-end performance metric reflects user-observable performance of a service provided by the computing deployment. The computer system can further execute an algorithm to determine values for the one or more tunable parameters that minimize power consumption of the one or more components, where the algorithm guarantees that the determined values will not cause the end-to-end performance metric, as calculated by the performance model, to cross a predefined threshold. The computer system can then enforce the determined values by applying changes to the one or more components.

Abstract translation: 提供了一种用于管理计算部署能源使用的技术。 在一个实施例中，计算机系统可以为计算部署的一个或多个组件建立性能模型，其中性能模型建模一个或多个组件的一个或多个可调参数与端对端性能度量之间的关系 ，并且其中端到端性能度量反映由计算部署提供的服务的用户可观察到的性能。 计算机系统可以进一步执行算法以确定使一个或多个组件的功耗最小化的一个或多个可调谐参数的值，其中算法保证所确定的值不会导致端对端性能度量，如 由性能模型计算，以跨越预定义的阈值。 然后，计算机系统可以通过对一个或多个组件进行改变来强制确定的值。
