Cloud computing provides information technology based services based on utilities to users across the globe. Application hosting for business, consumers and scientific domains is made possible with cloud computing. However, the data centres used for this purpose consume large amount of energy. This increases the operational cost and contribute carbon footprint affecting the environment. With increasing energy scarcities and global climate changes, it is essential to control power consumption. This paper presents a green cloud computing solution that addresses the issues of operational cost reduction and decreasing the carbon footprint and its impact on the environment. For this purpose we use data mining tools and auto-scaling with constraint satisfaction problems (CSP).
