Real-time monitoring promises to reduce the data center’s operational costs and increase energy savings. As data centers can house over a hundred thousand servers, the potential number of data points that can be collected every minute is in the order of hundreds of millions. In this work-in-progress paper, we stipulate about the impact that real-time monitoring of data centers has on the network infrastructure, and demonstrate that the impact is indeed significant enough to disrupt the data center’s network. We therefore propose a preliminary solution based on edge computing that minimizes the load on the network when performing real-time monitoring of a data center. %G English %Z TC 2 %Z WG 2.14 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-03203274/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-03203274/file/493832_1_En_11_Chapter.pdf %L hal-03203274 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-03203274 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-ESOCC %~ IFIP-TC2 %~ IFIP-WG2-14 %~ IFIP-LNCS-12054
