Title
GreenCloudNet plus plus : Simulation framework for energy efficient and secure, green job scheduling in geographically distributed data centers
Abstract
Geographically distributed data centers are used as backbone infrastructure to meet rapidly increasing service demands of computations and data storage in cloud computing. This increase results in high energy consumption, increased operational expenditures, and high carbon footprint which are becoming points of great concern for service providers. In this research work, we present a simulation framework named GreenCloudNet++ for simulation and evaluation of energy-efficient, green-aware, and secure job scheduling mechanisms for geographically distributed data centers. GreenCloudNet++ has been developed as an extension to CloudNetSim++, which is designed to simulate distributed data center architectures connected with high speed networks. The functionality of CloudNetSim++ is extended by adding hierarchical job scheduling mechanism, hierarchical statistics collection mechanism and integration mechanism for green energy. Proposed model considers availability of green energy at each data center and maximizes its utilization. It considers the amount of underutilized computational resources at individual data centers while assigning jobs to the data centers, which helps to achieve better server consolidation resulting in better energy efficiency. Proposed model also relies on network load inside each data center which helps avoiding hotspots.
