Abstract:
Cloud computing is a new technology that is being used by an increasing number of IT organisations because of its cost savings and user-friendliness. It must, however, be environmentally friendly. As a result, Green Cloud Computing is a necessity in today's environment. The cloud is an energy-intensive system that runs hundreds of hosts in a data centre. The energy consumption of cloud and edge computing is quite high. As a result, there is a need to investigate alternative strategies for lowering cloud energy use and develop an algorithm to do so. The goal of this research is to investigate developing energy-efficient cloud and edge computing approaches. Various energy-saving Green IT approaches are explored in this study. Because cloud computing is such a rapidly evolving technology these days, the study also discusses several energy-saving cloud computing strategies. The article also discusses virtual machine migration, a developing energy-conscious data centre technique. It also reviews the attempts made by different scientists to make Cloud and Edge Computing further energy efficient, to cut carbon footprint rate by various approaches.
