And brings salvation to our taste.

Concluding Remarks Dynamic provisioning is an effective technique in reducing server energy consumption in data centers, by turning off unnecessary servers to save energy.
Simple and Effective Dynamic Provisioning for Power-Proportional Data Centers
In this paper, we design online dynamic provisioning algorithms with zero or partial future workload information available.
Simple and Effective Dynamic Provisioning for Power-Proportional Data Centers
Our results also lead to a fundamental observation that under the cost model that a running server consumes a fixed amount energy per unit time, future workload information beyond the critical window will not improve the dynamic provisioning performance.
Simple and Effective Dynamic Provisioning for Power-Proportional Data Centers
Insights along this line provides useful understanding on the bene fit of knowing future workload in dynamic provisioning.
