Monitoring power consumption at the level of grid job slots remains a missing component of current Workload Management Systems for HEP experiments. While individual computing centres can monitor power consumption locally, maintaining a consistent view across heterogeneous clusters and re-benchmarking systems after each configuration change is time-consuming and often impractical for...

I have been working at DESY for a bit over a year as part of Research Facilities 2.0 (RF2.0), with the aim of making the compute infrastructure more ressource efficient.
In this talk I will present how we rolled out benchmarks to our clusters, how the results helped us finding misconfigurations, and some of the configuration changes we made to our infrastructure.

High Energy Physics (HEP) computing centers face increasing pressure to optimize energy consumption due to volatile electricity markets and the urgent need to reduce carbon footprints. The Port d'Informació Científica (PIC) is actively investigating strategies to implement dynamic, intra-day power scaling, aiming to reduce power draw during periods of peak electricity prices or high CO2...
