Review of energy aware big data computing measurements, benchmark methods and performance analysis

Abstract

In this paper we present a brief overview of the current benchmarks for energy efficiency as a way of keeping data centers as green as possible. To support energy management, this paper covers power and energy measurements, benchmarking and analysis in big data processing. The architecture and infrastructure challenges facing energy-aware data centers are summarized. Based on existing technologies, we review the methodologies used in power analysis and system energy optimization in research and reports relating to power benchmarks and energy efficiency improvements and awareness. Our main aim is to highlight the importance of this area in current research.
