Abstract
A method and system for provisioning data that has been collected and stored in a source database. The source database is a database that consumes a large amount of power and drains the company's database resources. The method and system determine which data should be provisioned and sent to a target server, the target server being more energy efficient than the source database and less exhausting of company resources. Various factors, such as the amount of data being requested and the frequency of change of the requested data, determine whether a transfer of data from the source database to the more energy efficient target database should be performed.
