Cloud computing had created a new era of network design, where end-users can get their required services without having to purchase expensive infrastructure or even to care about troubleshooting. Power consumption is a challenge facing the Cloud Providers to operate their Datacenters. One solution to overcome this is the Virtual Machine (VM) migration, which is a technique used to switch under-utilized hosts to sleep mode in order to save power, and to avoid over-utilized hosts from Service Level Agreement (SLA) violation. But still the problem is that the Cloud Service Provider apply a single policy on all nodes. Our proposed solution is an adaptive power panel where different policies can be applied based on both of the nature of the tasks running on hosts, and the Cloud Provider decision.
