Literature Review
Green Cloud Computing

Book 1: Green Cloud Computing: Balancing Energy Efficiency and Carbon Footprint
Author: Yingwei Zhang and Anirban Vishwanath
Introduction:
The book covers various topics related to green cloud computing, including energy-efficient
data centre design, virtualization techniques, cloud computing architectures, and resource
management strategies. It also discusses the challenges of implementing green cloud
computing, such as the trade-offs between energy efficiency and performance, the need for
new hardware and software technologies, and the importance of data centre location and
cooling systems. Key findings include the importance of reducing server idle time,
implementing energy-aware resource allocation policies, and leveraging renewable energy
sources to power data centres.
Advantages:
1. The book offers a comprehensive overview of green cloud computing, covering both
theoretical and practical aspects of the subject matter.
2. It provides insights into the latest trends and innovations in green cloud computing,
including emerging technologies such as server consolidation, virtualization, and renewable
energy sources.
Disadvantages:
1. Some of the technical content in the book may be challenging for readers without a strong
background in computer science or engineering.
2. The book is focused primarily on the technical aspects of green cloud computing and may
not appeal to readers who are looking for a more general overview of the topic.
Conclusion:
"Green Cloud Computing: Balancing Energy Efficiency and Carbon Footprint" is a valuable
resource for anyone interested in the intersection of cloud computing and environmental
sustainability. It provides practical strategies for reducing energy consumption and
greenhouse gas emissions in cloud computing environments, while also addressing the
challenges and trade-offs involved in implementing energy-efficient systems.

Book 2: Sustainable Cloud Computing: Management, Analysis and Future Directions


Author: M. Ramachandran and Zaigham Mahmood
Introduction:
The book covers a wide range of topics related to sustainable cloud computing, including
energy efficiency, carbon footprint reduction, green data center design, cloud governance,
and sustainable business models. One important aspect of sustainable cloud computing is
energy efficiency. The book discusses various techniques and algorithms that can be used to
reduce the energy consumption of cloud computing systems, including virtual machine
consolidation, load balancing, and resource provisioning.
Advantages:
1. Energy efficiency techniques can significantly reduce the carbon footprint and operating
costs of cloud computing systems.
2. Virtual machine consolidation and load balancing can improve system performance and
reliability by optimizing resource utilization.
Disadvantages:
1. Energy efficiency techniques may require additional hardware or software investments,
which can increase upfront costs.
2. The implementation of energy efficiency techniques may require significant changes to the
existing cloud computing infrastructure, which can be time-consuming and disruptive.
Conclusion:
Energy efficiency is an important aspect of sustainable cloud computing, and the book
provides valuable insights into the various techniques and algorithms that can be used to
achieve this goal. While there may be some disadvantages to implementing these techniques,
the potential benefits in terms of reduced energy consumption, lower operating costs, and
improved system performance make them a worthwhile investment for cloud service
providers.
