Virtualization and Cloud Computing: Optimized Power, Cooling, and Management ...Schneider Electric
IT virtualization, the engine behind cloud computing, can have significant consequences on the data center physical infrastructure (DCPI). Higher power densities that often result can challenge the cooling capabilities of an existing system. Reduced overall energy consumption that typically results from physical server consolidation may actually worsen the data center’s power usage effectiveness (PUE). Dynamic loads that vary in time and location may heighten the risk of downtime if rack-level power and cooling health are not understood and considered. Finally, the fault-tolerant nature of a highly virtualized environment could raise questions about the level of redundancy required in the physical infrastructure. These particular effects of virtualization are discussed and possible solutions or methods for dealing with them are offered.

NFPA 110 provides performance requirements for emergency and standby power systems that supply reliable auxiliary power to critical and essential loads when the primary power source fails. The standard covers installation, maintenance, operation, and testing requirements as they pertain to the performance of the emergency power supply system (EPSS) including power sources, transfer equipment, controls, supervisory equipment, and all related electrical and mechanical auxiliary and accessory equipment.

With the rise of containerization, as well as the established adoption of virtualization technologies, run-time power and energy management is becoming one of the key challenges in modern cloud computing. This is also fundamental as power consumption contributes to the 20% of the Total Cost of Ownership of a datacenter and energy costs will exceed hardware costs in the near future. In this context, several goals towards power optimization can be achieved. On the one hand, power capping can be enforced and on top of that the system should be able to maximize performance. On the other hand, when performance are critical, the system should be able to provide a minimum SLA and optimize power consumption without violating it. Within this context, we propose a common autonomic methodology based on the ODA control loop for containers and virtual machines. The proposed methodology is able to achieve 25% power savings for containers and can improve performance under a power cap for virtual machines.

Optimizing distribution network operations involves leveraging leading industry trends such as platform consolidation, IT/OT convergence, big data analytics, and distributed energy resource management. An advanced distribution management system (ADMS) provides a comprehensive network management solution that can integrate monitoring, analysis, control, optimization, planning and training tools on a common infrastructure. Utilities are adopting solutions that leverage internet of things connectivity between intelligent field devices to provide layers of information exchange and control. Distributed energy resources like solar, wind, storage and microgrids can provide utilities alternatives to building new generation and transmission assets when used for peak relief, voltage support and grid resiliency.
This document provides an overview of SCADA systems and their application in power system operation and control. It discusses:
- How SCADA systems enable centralized monitoring and control of dispersed power system assets under deregulated electricity markets.
- The typical components of a SCADA system including the human-machine interface, application servers, communication servers, remote terminal units, and communication infrastructure.
- The main functions of SCADA systems including data acquisition, event and alarm processing, control capabilities, data storage and analysis.
- Communication protocols commonly used in SCADA systems like DNP3, IEC 60870-5-101/104, and IEC 60870-6 for
The document discusses Asset Insight, a solution for monitoring and managing assets. It provides functionality for asset management, risk management, reliability analysis, condition monitoring and capacity management. Recent deployments include projects with ICR involving 6 datacenters and 11 colocation sites. The Co-operative Group deployment involves monitoring 240 critical assets. What clients say highlights benefits like preventing downtime by detecting changes in asset operation.
The MI 2792 PowerQ4 Plus is a power quality analyzer designed for troubleshooting power systems and devices. It has 4 voltage and 4 current measurement channels, measures over 500 parameters simultaneously, and can record for over 4 weeks. Key features include compliance with IEC and IEEE standards, advanced analysis capabilities, and a software package for detailed data analysis and report generation. Typical applications include monitoring power quality according to EN 50160 standards and troubleshooting disturbances across distribution networks using multiple synchronized instruments.
Adaptive power Regulator -Project ReportSaketh Ram
The document discusses load management in industries to reduce electricity costs and penalties. It describes how industries currently manage loads by manually switching off unnecessary loads when demand peaks, but this is inefficient and can cause process losses. The Adaptive Power Regulator provides a better solution by automatically shedding loads based on priority levels to precisely manage demand without losses. It also aims to improve power factors for incentives and prevent exceeding maximum demand levels to avoid penalties.

3. 6 Zone Data Centre Management
Overview
• Provides a truly holistic view of the data centre environment by
bridging the gap between Facilities and IT
• Monitoring and reporting of energy usage and efficiency from the
building ‘point of entry’ through to individual Server payload
• Tailored historical data collection and sophisticated management
reporting, empowering the client to make informed decisions based on
accurate data to maintain and improve energy efficiency, reduce costs
and increase facility resilience
• Legacy data centre deployments typically show a first year energy
saving of circa 25-30%, with an ROI of less than 12 months
• Apportioning of costs over user defined timeframes
• “Real time” monitoring and alerting

5. What We Look To Achieve
• To identify and collect monitoring points in a logical step by step
process.
• To monitor energy use from the point of entry to an
individual Server within the data centre.
• Consolidate data collection and reporting functions onto a single
platform for multi department sharing of information, easy analysis
and interpretation.
• Provide automated “billing” reports based on Row, Cabinet, POD and
down to Server level.
