Energy Conservations in Big Data Infrastructure: A Concise Study of Data Center

The availability of dependable physical infrastructure is essential to the existence of big data. In fact, without the accessibility of a robust physical infrastructure, big data probably couldn’t emerge as much. In order to support such a huge volume of data, a physical infrastructure for big data must be big enough to handle the associated requests. This means satisfying both the quantity and the quality aspects of data handling. By quantity we refer to the substantial figure of the computational nodes, and by quality we refer to their high performance. Redundancy is a key factor to improve service availability in big data. On the other hand, low latency is a crucial necessity of big data. These requirements together, greatly contribute to the energy consumptions of infrastructure that support big data. In this paper, we briefly review some energy attributes, as well as some conservation techniques that are effective and can alleviate the energy utilization of big data infrastructure. We mainly focus on the study of data center as it is the pivot component in the big data ecosystem.
