Abstract

Growing usage of electronic technologies such as internet has brought about creation of various platforms in this infrastructure. Data centers are exploited by different governmental and non-governmental firms within various locations according to some criteria like facility usage volume, shared information amount, political and geographic positions ands. These centers include different processing-storage and communicational segments, each needs its own energy and cost consumption which affects efficiency, productivity and profitability of these centers. Content delivery network is a solution to connect these data centers which are located in various geographical nodes. Applying this technological solution can lead to efficiency increase, delay decrease in sending information and other capabilities. Using digital technology platforms requires different sources of nonrenewable energies such as electricity, petroleum and etc. Consuming energy causes environmental degradation, beside leading firms to undergo extra costs in the process of providing services. In this paper, we are trying to present a method in order to decrease the energy amount using the suggested idea in connected content distribution networks and their usage in internet infrastructure and focusing on geographical differences of data centers. The results of this method are mentioned at the end of this paper which conclude the above model decreases energy consumption and increases efficiency based on its usage area.
