Abstract

This study deals with the assessment indices about greening performance of datacenter. To do this, we survey existing standards and guidelines about datacenter. Those are used constructing new model of datacenter regarding greening performance. In this model, the relationship between major components will be represented by job-energy-thermal notation. Items, criteria and methods are created in order to complete the assessment indices. The existing assessment indices of the datacenter level and equipment level are investigated. Parameters, the degree of virtualization and energy efficiency also affects the performance of the green performance. Finally, to determine the improvements, the proposed indices is compared with the existing assessment tools.

본 연구는 그린화 성능을 고려한 데이터센터의 평가지표를 개발하는 것을 목표로 한다. 이를 위해 다음과 같은 연구를 수행하고자 한다. 첫째, 데이터센터에 관련된 기준과 표준을 조사한다. 이 기준과 표준을 활용하여 그린화 성능을 고려한 데이터센터 모형을 제시한다. 이모형은 데이터센터에서 그린화 성능에 영향을 미치는 주요 구성요소들 간의 상관관계를 작업량-에너지-열로 표현한 것이다. 둘째, 이모형을 이용하여 그린화 성능 평가항목과 평가지표 그리고 평가방법을 제안한다. 셋째, 기기 수준과 데이터센터 수준의 그린화 성능을 평가하는 기준들에 대한 현황을 파악한다. 이를 통해 데이터센터의 그린화 성능에 영향을 미치는 요인을 고려할 수 있을 것이다. 마지막으로 기존의 그린화 성능 평가도구들을 조사하여, 제안하는 평가항목과 지표의 향후 필요한 개선점을 식별하고자 한다.
