Abstract

Cloud computing is the internet-based provision of computer services. The usage of some cloud services by individuals and businesses is expanding quickly. The rising demand for cloud infrastructure has led to a notable rise in the energy consumption of data centers. Reducing energy usage is essential to lowering carbon dioxide emissions, hence it must be addressed. Given that green cloud computing's main objective is to maximize energy efficiency, it is acknowledged as a potential solution to this issue. This paper presents green cloud computing alternatives for energy savings in addition to defining cloud computing with the key cloud service models, deployment strategies, and computing platforms. After that, these solutions were categorized based on how well they reduced energy.
