power capping and limiting in data centers
Power capping and limiting in data centers is the practice of setting a maximum power consumption threshold for a data center and implementing measures to ensure that it does not exceed this cap. This involves monitoring and controlling the power usage of various components, such as servers, cooling systems, and networking equipment, to maintain optimal energy efficiency. By placing limits on power consumption, data centers can reduce operational costs, improve sustainability, and prevent power outages or failures caused by excessive energy usage.
