根据美国环境保护局（US EPA）的数据，2010年在美国消耗的所有电力中，几乎有3％用于运行数据中心，其中大多数供电服务器和相关的空调系统致力于消除它们产生的热量。 EPA于2009年5月启动了EnergyStar®计算机服务器程序，旨在提供信息，以更好地启用基于预计功耗的服务服务器购买决策。
服务器效率评级工具（SERT）是由标准绩效评估公司（SPEC）Spec Powers委员会开发的，以解决能源之星服务器计划2版的EPA要求。成为基准，对于版本2，它没有提供单个分数模型。整体服务器功耗上的网络和存储I/O配置。
本文描述了SERT的设计和开发，包括讨论与EPA合作的协作性质以及参与设计，审查和开发过程的各个行业的利益相关者。规格开发的基准和本文说明了共享想法和代码的地方，以及新思维也带来了全新的解决方案随着能源之星服务器计划的不断发展，SERT将随着它的发展而发展，包括未来的想法。
According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) almost 3% of all electricity consumed within the US in 2010 goes to running datacenters, with the majority of that powering servers and the associated air conditioning systems dedicated to eliminating the heat they produce. The EPA launched the ENERGY STAR® Computer Server program in May 2009, intended to deliver information to better enable server purchasing decisions based on projected power consumption.
The Server Efficiency Rating Tool (SERT) has been developed by the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) SPECpower committee to address the EPA requirements for Version 2 of the ENERGY STAR server program. Unlike many tools sourced from the SPEC organization the SERT is not intended to be a benchmark, and for Version 2 does not offer a single score model. Instead it produces detailed information regarding the influence of CPU, memory, network and storage I/O configurations on overall server power consumption.
This paper describes the design and development of the SERT, including discussion of the collaborative nature of working with the EPA and the various industry stakeholders involved in the design, review and development process. Many of the core ideas behind SERT were derived from theSPECpower_ssj2008 and other SPEC-developed benchmarks, and this paper illustrates where ideas and code were shared, as well as where new thinking resulted in entirely new solutions. It also includes thoughts for the future, as the ENERGY STAR server program continues to evolve and the SERT will evolve with it.
