Abstract
Example embodiments of the present invention provide a method, apparatus and computer program product for determining a share of power consumption by an application executing on a server. The method includes obtaining metrics relating to operation of the server and obtaining metrics relating to server resource utilization attributable to the application. A transformation is then performed using the metrics relating to operation of the server and server resource utilization attributable to the application to determine the respective share of power consumption by the application executing on the server. Additionally, greenhouse-gases attributable to the application also may be calculated.
