    摘要: Disclosed techniques include power manipulation using power caches within a datacenter. The power caches store power for later use when power demand exceeds the power available. A power source is coupled across a plurality of data racks to a power load within a datacenter. A power cache is coupled to the power load. Power for the power load is provided from the power source. The power cache is enabled to provide power to the power load when power requirements of the power load exceed a power threshold. The power threshold is determined by a set of power policies for the datacenter. The enabling the power cache to provide power to the power load provides power bursting capability.

    摘要: Dynamic tiering of datacenter power for workloads is disclosed. A power capacity, including redundant power capacity and granular power capacity values within a datacenter, is determined. An outage time duration requirement for the power capacity that was determined is evaluated, where the outage time duration requirement is a number of minutes. A hold time duration requirement for the power capacity is evaluated, where the hold time duration is a number of minutes. A number of allowable occurrences of power outage for the power capacity is evaluated. A power requirement metric, based on the outage time duration requirement, the hold time duration requirement, and the number of occurrences, is calculated. A power topology within the datacenter is modified based on the power requirement metric. The modifying provides dynamic power tiering within the datacenter. The dynamic tiering includes a variable service level agreement for power within the datacenter.

    摘要: Disclosed are systems and methods to provide energy control via power-requirement analysis and power-source enablement. Both demand-side and supply-side techniques are used alone or in conjunction to determine an optimal number of power sources to supply power to one or more loads. When fluctuations in power requirements are present, measures such as decoupling less-critical loads in order to continue delivering power to critical systems and turning on and off power sources as needed to meet the current power demands of a system are implemented. Power sources are periodically deactivated by the system on a rotational basis such that all power sources wear evenly, prolonging the life of the equipment. A scalable architecture that allows the virtualization of power from the underlying hardware form factor is also provided.

    摘要: In disclosed techniques, datacenter power management uses AC and DC power sources. An AC power distribution topology within a datacenter provides one or more AC power sources to computing devices. A DC power distribution topology within the datacenter provides one or more DC power sources to computing devices. An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is provisioned to a rack of computing devices, wherein the UPS is capable of receiving the one or more AC power sources using the AC power distribution topology and the one or more DC power sources using the DC power distribution topology. The one or more DC power sources are evaluated for energizing the DC power distribution topology. The one or more DC power sources are connected to the UPS which is provisioned to the rack of computing devices, based on the evaluating and a datacenter power requirement.
