US patent US12761718

Management system for provisioning server resources of a data center

Abstract

A data center has a management system for selecting a server computer to start or shut down. The management system has a machine learning model that is trained to predict power consumption of the data center using a large training dataset of many, different data centers. The machine learning model is fine-tuned using data of server computers of the data center. Input data that include temperature information of a server computer and position of the server computer are input to the machine learning model to obtain a predicted difference in power consumption of the data center. Predicted differences in power consumption of the data center are compared to select a server computer to start or shut down.
