Abstract
Issues in Energy Efficiency of Data Centers (DC) are important, due to the cumulative effects of the increase in the DCs number and in the energy consumption per center. Developing new design recommendations to improve a cooling system efficiency, commonly quantified by the PUE metric (Power Usage Effectiveness) is one objective of the Green IT organizations. For existing DCs, without considering the optimization of the IT workload, a possible way to improve the DC's energy efficiency is to adjust the cooling setpoints. In this paper, a methodology based on predictive models is used to optimize the PUE by improving the cooling setting. The modeling approach consists in exploiting the temperatures and energy measurements at various operating conditions to predict the PUE behavior using data-driven models commonly called black box models. The optimization procedures are based on the simulation of these models in order to estimate the best working conditions.
