Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for managing operation of a distributed system that provides computer-implemented services. An example method includes collecting, via an out-of-band stream, sensor data from a plurality of temperature sensors positioned to infer temperatures of components of a distributed system. The example method further includes inferring, using the inferred temperatures, power consumption rates for performing respective actions with each of the components. The method further includes obtaining an action request and selecting, based on the inferred power consumption rates, a particular component of the components to perform an action to service the action request, the selection being made with a preference to reduce power consumption for performance of the action. The method further includes performing, with the particular component, the action to service the action request, the action resulting in updated computer-implemented services being provided by the distributed system.
