Patent number: 11216059Abstract: Dynamic tiering of datacenter power for workloads is disclosed. A power capacity, including redundant power capacity and granular power capacity values within a datacenter, is determined. An outage time duration requirement for the power capacity that was determined is evaluated, where the outage time duration requirement is a number of minutes. A hold time duration requirement for the power capacity is evaluated, where the hold time duration is a number of minutes. A number of allowable occurrences of power outage for the power capacity is evaluated. A power requirement metric, based on the outage time duration requirement, the hold time duration requirement, and the number of occurrences, is calculated. A power topology within the datacenter is modified based on the power requirement metric. The modifying provides dynamic power tiering within the datacenter. The dynamic tiering includes a variable service level agreement for power within the datacenter.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2019Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Inventors: Clark A. Jeria Frias, Karimulla Raja Shaikh, Shankar Ramamurthy

Publication number: 20210294406Abstract: Datacenter power management using current injection is disclosed. A datacenter topology that includes a utility grid feed, power caches, power control blocks, loads, and uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) providing AC power is accessed. A supply capacity is allocated from a first UPS to the one or more loads within the datacenter, below a peak load requirement for the loads. It is also allocated based on a datacenter power policy. An AC current requirement is detected by the one or more power control blocks. The AC current requirement is detected for the one or more loads at the output network of the first UPS. AC current is injected into the output network of the first UPS by the one or more power control blocks. The AC current injection is based on the AC current requirement that was detected. The AC current injection is further based on the datacenter power policy.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 19, 2021Publication date: September 23, 2021Applicant: Virtual Power Systems, Inc.Inventors: Craig Broadbent, Clark A.

Patent number: 11126242Abstract: Disclosed techniques include time-varying power management within datacenters. A set of power policies for managing power within a datacenter is obtained. The set of policies varies over time. A priority is determined for a policy within the set of policies for managing the power within the datacenter. The policy within the set varies over time. A situation within the datacenter is identified where the situation matches that described in the policy within the set of policies. A power arrangement within the datacenter is modified based on the policy within the set of policies. The power arrangement within the datacenter applies to a section of the datacenter including one or more IT racks. The modifying includes powering a set of loads within the datacenter by a specific power source, changing a topology within the datacenter, powering down a portion of the datacenter, or changing a service level agreement support level.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2019Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: Virtual Power Systems, Inc.Inventors: Karimulla Raja Shaikh, Clark A.

Publication number: 20210223837Abstract: In disclosed techniques, secure communication initiation and execution is used for datacenter power control. Information relating to power control is encrypted for inclusion in a first data payload. The first data payload is used for datacenter power infrastructure control. The first data payload is sent from a first component within a datacenter to a second component within the datacenter. The first component and the second component enable power infrastructure power control of the datacenter. The datacenter power infrastructure control is modified based on decryption of the first data payload by the second component within the datacenter. The first data payload provides for intelligent power control within the datacenter. Modifying the datacenter power infrastructure control dynamically changes power control within the datacenter. The changing power control changes power policies within the datacenter. The first component is authenticated using the first data payload. Encryption includes obscurity.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 2, 2021Publication date: July 22, 2021Applicant: Virtual Power Systems, Inc.Inventors: Karimulla Raja Shaikh, Clark A.
