Data Centers are the biggest consumer of energy and hence required to be energy efficient. These data centers require a context-aware sensing mechanism to implement selective sensing for minimizing power consumption. An effective energy management architecture can supply power uninterrupted to the dedicated sensor and switches off the idle controllers/sensors/actuators as and when required [25]. Effective data center functioning needs to tackle the following issues.

 A meticulous distribution and evaluation of workload to the dedicated servers.

 Identification and cutting-off of power supply to the ideal servers and redistribution of the workforce and load.

 Maximizing the application of renewable energy sources.

 Efficient and economical use of power and depleted resources.
