    摘要: A heat sink is constructed including at least one thermally conductive pedestal, allowing configuration of the heat sink to make contact with a plurality of heat-generating electronic devices where the devices may not be co-planar due to tolerance stack-up. The pedestals may be raised and lowered and tilted as needed to match the heights and tilts of the electronic devices. Within the heat sink is a cavity above the pedestal that may be filled with a thermally conductive material, such as solder, or a thermally conductive liquid, during construction to create a low thermal resistance contact between the pedestal and the heat sink fins. Also, thermally conductive material, such as thermal paste or a thermal pad, may be used between the heat generating device and the pedestal to create a low thermal resistance contact.

    摘要: Described herein are various technologies pertaining to predicting an amount of electrical power that is to be generated by a power system at a future point in time, wherein the power system utilizes a renewable energy resource to generate electrical power. A camera is positioned to capture an image of sky over a geographic region of interest. The image is analyzed to predict an amount of solar radiation that is to be received by the power source at a future point in time. The predicted solar radiation is used to predict an amount of electrical power that will be output by the power system at the future point in time. A computational resource of a data center that is powered by way of the power source is managed as a function of the predicted amount of power.

    摘要: Power is provided to one or more devices in a system that includes a hierarchical power smoothing environment having multiple tiers. In response to a peak in power usage by the one or more devices, power is provided from a first power smoothing component in a first tier of the multiple tiers. Additionally, power is provided to the one or more devices from power smoothing components in each of other tiers of the multiple tiers if the power smoothing component in a next lower tier of the multiple tiers is unable to provide sufficient power for the peak in power usage. If the power smoothing components in the multiple tiers are unable to provide sufficient power for the peak in power usage, then performance of at least one of the one or more devices is reduced in response to the peak in power usage.

    摘要: This document describes various techniques for automatically starting servers at low temperatures. A server may be powered on into a heating mode responsive to determining that a temperature of the server is below an operational temperature range. The server may then be restarted when the temperature of the server has increased to a temperature that is within the operational temperature range.
