Green Cloud

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.

NOTE: THIS ARTICLE WAS PUBLISHED WITH THE INFORMING SCIENCE INSTITUTE. Aim/Purpose................................................................................................................................................................................................. The main objective of the current study is to develop a business model for service providers of cloud computing which is designed based on circular economy principles and can ensure the sustainable consumption. Background Even though the demand for cloud computing technology is increasing day by day in all over the world, the current the linear economy principles are incapable to ensure society development needs. To consider the benefit of the society and the vendors at the same time, the principles of circular economy can address this issue. Methodology................................................................................................................................................................................................. An extensive literature review on consumption, sustainable consumption, circular economic, business model, and cloud computing were conducted. the proposed model of Osterwalder, Pigneur and Tucci (2005) is admitted designing the circular business model. Contribution................................................................................................................................................................................................. The proposed model of the study is the contribution of this study where provides the guidelines for the cloud computing service providers to achieve both their economic profits and the society’ needs. Findings Finding reveals that if the cloud computing service providers design their business model based on the “access” principle of circular economy, they can meet their economic profits and the society’ needs at a same time. Recommendations for Practitioners.............................................................................................................................................................. It is recommended to the startup and the existing businesses to utilize the proposed model of this study to reach a sustainable development. Recommendation for Researchers................................................................................................................................................................ It proposes a new circular business model and its linkages with community building. Impact on Society............................................................................................................................................................................................ The proposed model of the study provides guidelines to the cloud computing service providers to design a business model which is able not only to meet their economic profit, but also to meet the society’s and customers’ benefits. Future Research............................................................................................................................................................................................... Future researches can build on this research model which proposed in this study to examine the limitations of this model by using empirical researches.
