Green computing is a contemporary research topic to address climate and energy challenges. In this chapter, the authors envision the duality of green computing with technological trends in other fields of computing such as High Performance Computing (HPC) and cloud computing on one hand and economy and business on the other hand. For instance, in order to provide electricity for large-scale cloud infrastructures and to reach exascale computing, we need huge amounts of energy. Thus, green computing is a challenge for the future of cloud computing and HPC. Alternatively, clouds and HPC provide solutions for green computing and climate change. In this chapter, the authors discuss this proposition by looking at the technology in detail.

Cloud computing is an upcoming IT approach that presents various new economic benefits, effective rapid deployment of services to achieve ultimate benefits and goals. Cloud computing reveals an effective connection of internet and computing technologies with personal or business computing that is changing the environment of computing process by providing solutions which are designed, delivered and managed. This model is a remarkable shift from the traditional model of computing. The cloud is an attractive technology solution as it enables to reduce the total cost of ownership and giving “green computing” environment by energy saving concept. Use of Cloud computing technology in different areas provides greater opportunities in the overall development of world, especially India. This chapter throw lights on various dimensions in which cloud computing concept is used . This paper also reviews the potential and opportunities for cloud computing in the healthcare industry, tourism, defence and military applications and various another aspects.

Today cloud computing became an impressive solution to address the challenges in storage and process of high volume data, with low-cost, high-speed, on-demand and pay-per-use characteristics. Although rapid progression has been recorded in the area of cloud computing and its services, attaining the implementation of green clouds is still under development due to lack of research and several barriers in its implementation. Green clouds are committed to design as eco-friendly, energy efficient, max resource utilizable, low carbon emissions, long lasting and recyclable. In order to satisfy the ever growing enterprise data storage and processing needs, the cloud service providers are coming up with cutting edge technologies like Green Cloud Computing in cloud architecture design to reduce, the huge power consumption, water consumption, need of physical hardware peripherals, infrastructure and harmful carbon emissions etc. To protect our environment from cloud negative impacts, the service providers must adopt and update their cloud infrastructure towards green computing. Green computing researches widely focus on designing of efficient clouds with green characteristics like Power Management, Virtualization, High Performance Computing, Load balancing, Green data center, Reusability, Recyclability etc. As part of my research on green clouds, this paper presents an analysis report about the green cloud computing and its characteristics in detailed manner. This paper thoroughly discusses about the former green computing achievements, current trending concepts of green computing and future research challenges as well. This comprehensive green cloud analysis report helps the naïve green research fellows to learn about green cloud topics and to understand the green cloud future research challenges.


Usually cloud computing is based under effective data computing but green cloud computing focus on energy efficiency of device and computing mainly based on computing architecture. Here cloud computing is also known as green computing due its better effective energy. The purpose of green computing is to decrease the usage of harmful resources, maximizing energy efficiency throughout the living span of the good and also to promote the recyclability or bio degradability of useless goods plus misuse materials of the factory. In order to simulate the hardware by utilizing software, green computing plays a major role for various technologies like virtualization, green data center, cloud and grid computing and power optimization. Here computer resources are effectively utilized by replacing the data center standalone server system by artificial server so as to run the software by less number for large computers called as virtualized. Finally this paper is fulfilled by the advancement of recognized energy efficient computing

There has been rapid expansion of the information technology due to contribution to emission of carbon dioxide. The cloud computing technology has been perceived to present solution to various studies that try to investigate on the most appropriate ways of reducing the carbon dioxide gas emissions. The current study aimed at investigating the adoption of virtualization in cloud computing as a means through which the green computing can be achieved. According to the paper virtualization among its many process helps in curtailing equipment required through cloud computing resources to facilitate adequate use of resources to make use of energy and assets.
