ECO₂Project Outline

ECO₂Clouds investigates strategies that can both ensure effective application deployment on the Cloud infrastructures and reduce energy consumption and CO₂ emissions.

ECO₂Clouds will provide a challenging and innovative approach to Cloud computing service through different actions:

• developing mechanisms to collect eco-metrics data and quantify the environmental impact of operations  at infrastructure and application level;
• developing  a comprehensive approach to multi-cloud application deployment;
• developing evaluation mechanisms and optimization algorithms.

The carbon-aware mechanisms will be integrated into the FIRE facility BonFIRE.

ECO₂Clouds will develop and test  an application deployment strategy which will optimize the environmental impact. In addition it will propose an optimization model for Cloud infrastructures.
