Abstract
In cloud computing, an application design plays an important role and the efficient structure of an application can increase the energy-efficiency and sustainability of cloud datacenters. To make the infrastructure eco-friendly, energy-efficient and sustainable, there is a need for innovative applications. In this chapter, we comprehensively analyze the challenges in sustainable cloud computing and review the current developments for different applications. We propose a taxonomy of application management for sustainable cloud computing and identified research challenges. We also map the existing related studies to the taxonomy in order to identify current search gaps in the area of application management for sustainable cloud computing. Furthermore, we propose open research challenges for sustainable cloud computing based on the observations.
