Abstract:
A data center workload distribution management system includes a cooling cost engine to determine a cooling cost or cooling capacity for each of a plurality of zones of a data center and a workload distribution engine. The workload distribution engine is to identify the zone that has a lowest cooling cost and sufficient cooling capacity and also has sufficient processing capacity for a workload, determine a local cooling efficiency index for at least one location within the identified zone, and distribute the workload to the location having a local cooling efficiency index that indicates the highest cooling efficiency.
