Abstract:
Methods and systems for reducing energy consumption. A method may include aggregating, for a prior time period, prior usage data from a plurality of computing nodes. Based on the aggregated prior usage data from the plurality of computing nodes, a usage threshold for decreasing cooling system output for the plurality of computing nodes and a local-time threshold for decreasing the cooling system output for the plurality of computing nodes are determined. Current usage data for the plurality of computing nodes is then received. When the current usage data reaches the usage threshold and the local time is after the local-time threshold, output of the cooling systems of the plurality of computing nodes is decreased.
