Low Power Management of OLTP Applications Considering Disk Drive Power Saving Function
نویسندگان
چکیده
A power-saving management for OLTP applications has become an important task for user budgets and datacenter operations. This paper presents a novel power-saving method for multiple disk drives based on knowledge of OLTP application behaviors. We report detail analysis of power consumption of disk drives and I/O characteristics of OLTP application. We then show experimental and simulation results of our power-saving methods. Our method provides substantially lower power consumption of disk drives compared to that of a conventional OLTP environment.

Potentiality of Power Management on Database Systems with Power Saving Function of Disk Drives
Power consumption of modern datacenters is increasing rapidly. Databases, especially OLTPs, have become a major application at datacenters. Therefore, power-saving management for OLTP applications has become an important task for user budgets and datacenter operations. A recent report described that disk drives consume about 70% of total power of IT equipment when such large OLTP applications a...
متن کاملPower-Aware Operating Systems using ACPI
The idea behind today’s power management is to reduce the power usage of systems when someone walks away from their PC or stops using after a period of time, by sending the hardware into a “sleep mode” or “power-saving mode”. Hardware components such as processors, memory chips and disks have advanced power management techniques (besides “power-saving” modes) to consume less power. However, ope...
متن کاملApplication-Aware Power Saving for Online Transaction Processing Using Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling in a Multicore Environment
Power consumption in data centers has been growing remarkably recent years, and power saving of their servers is essential. For power saving of these servers, power saving of an online transaction processing (OLTP) systems, which are major applications in data centers, is important. The OLTP system consumes relatively large amount of power because it is often equipped with a lot of computing an...
متن کاملPower-aware operating systems for interactive systems
Many portable systems deploy operating systems (OS) to support versatile functionality and to manage resources, including power. This paper presents a new approach for using OS to reduce the power consumption of IO devices in interactive systems. Low-power OS observes the relationship between hardware devices and processes. The OS kernel estimates the utilization of a device from each process. ...
متن کاملEnergy Saving in Evaporative Coolers using Permanent Magnet Brushless Motors
Due to low cost, evaporative coolers are used in most of the central regions and in the warm and dry climate of Iran and are considered as one of the major consumers of electrical power. Most evaporative coolers use single-phase induction motors by connecting directly to the power grid. But their eefficiency is very low, and their replacement with high efficiency electric motors is considered b...
