Abstract
Optical data centers consume a large quantity of energy and the cost of that energy has a significant contribution to the operational cost in data centers. The amount of electricity consumption in data centers and their related costs are increasing day by day. Data centers are geographically distributed all around the continents and the growing numbers of data replicas have made it possible to find more cost effective network routing. Besides flat-rate prices, today, there are companies which offers real-time pricing. In order to address the energy consumption cost problem, we propose an energy efficient routing scheme to find least cost path to the replicas based on real-time pricing model called energy price aware routing (EPAR). Our research considers anycast data transmission model to find the suitable replica as well as the fixed window traffic allocation model for demand request to reduce the energy consumption cost of data center networks.
