T* takes a novel, data-centric approach to reduce cooling energy costs and to ensure thermal-reliability of the servers. T* is cognizant of the difference in thermal-profile and thermal-reliability-driven load threshold of the servers, and the difference in the computational jobs arrival rate, size, and evolution life spans of the Big Data placed in the cluster. Based on this knowledge, and coupled with its predictive file models and insights, T* does proactive, thermal-aware file placement, which implicitly results in thermal-aware job placement in the Big Data analytics compute model. T* evaluation results with one-month long real-world Big Data analytics production traces from Yahoo! show up to 42% reduction in the cooling energy costs, lower and more uniform thermal-profile, and 9x better performance than the state-of-the-art data-agnostic, job-placement-centric cooling techniques.
