PowerCapping
PowerCapping is a technology that provides a software-based approach to power management in data centers and other high-performance computing environments. Its primary goal is to regulate power consumption, prevent over-powering of servers and devices, and meet emerging power and thermal challenges.
The concept behind PowerCapping is to set a cap or limit on the maximum amount of power
PowerCapping benefits include improved data center power efficiency, reduced cooling requirements, and lower overall costs. It
Several key players in the IT industry have developed PowerCapping technologies, including Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA.
As a general practice, PowerCapping is implemented using specialized management software and tools that integrate with
