ABSTRACT: Energy consumption in data centers has
grown out of proportion in regard to the state of energy that’s available in
the universe. Technology has improved services and its application. The need
for eco-friendly energy and increase in data centers performance brought about
Green Computing into the energy consumption of data centers. Information
technology has grown and eaten deep into the society that almost all the
sectors if not all are dependent on information technology to move on. The
consumption of power has increased greatly. In this research paper the
techniques for optimizing energy in data centers for Green Computing would be
discussed. This study intends to expose the limitations of existing security
solutions for securing data centers by taking into consideration of limitations
of existing security frameworks that cannot enhance the security of data
centers.
