Abstract

In some examples, a method includes acquiring status information of at least one resource of a data center, estimating, based on the status information, whether load on a power supply will exceed a threshold value at a time subsequent a time of the estimating, and in response to estimating that load on the power supply will exceed the threshold value at the time subsequent the time of the estimating, transmitting a command signal to a server rack that is coupled to the power supply to configure equipment of the server rack to operate at a reduced power supply level that is reduced from a power supply level at the time of the estimating and that is based on a service level agreement associated with the server rack.
