Abstract: A method for establishing a power profile for a computing device and then using that profile for future power calculations and cost savings estimates after the implementation of a selected power scheme in the computing device is disclosed. This is accomplished by establishing a power profile on a model computing device and then matching that profile to other machines that are similar in configuration. Each tested machine has a power profile that is recorded and saved in cloud based memory storage. A striated matching methodology is utilized to provide the best profile match for each target machine in the enterprise which allows for accurate power calculations for each machine based upon similar original target machine profiles. Once power calculations are done for target machines based on the established profiles, power schemes can then be deployed across an enterprise computing landscape and power calculations taken again to determine potential power savings.
