Managing power consumption in a software build environment
Described herein are systems, methods, and software to manage power consumption in a software build environment. In one implementation, a monitoring service monitors power consumption information associated with a build environment for one or more software components. The monitoring service further identifies one or more trends associated with the power consumption information based at least on the power consumption information satisfying one or more criteria and generates a summary for display that indicates at least the one or more trends. The monitoring service may also identify and display as part of the summary one or more suggestions to improve power consumption based on the one or more trends.

identifying one or more trends associated with the power consumption information based at least on the power consumption information satisfying one or more criteria;
identifying one or more suggestions associated with the power consumption based at least on the one or more trends, wherein the one or more suggestions comprise at least a time-shift suggestion to move one or more future builds of the one or more software components from a first period to a second period; and
generating, for display, a summary, wherein the summary indicates at least the one or more trends and the one or more suggestions associated with the power consumption.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the build environment comprises a plurality of host computing systems for a plurality of virtualized endpoints.

identifying a trend of the one or more trends based on an actual cost associated with the power consumption information satisfying one or more criteria in relation to the estimated improved cost.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying the one or more trends associated with the power consumption information based at least on the power consumption information satisfying one or more criteria comprises:
identifying that the power consumption information associated with at least one build of the one or more builds exceeds a threshold.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the power consumption information comprises at least a total power consumption used per build in a plurality of builds for the one or more software components.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein a trend of the one or more trends comprises a quantity of failed builds of the one or more software components in relation to a quantity of successful builds of the one or more software components.
8. A computing apparatus comprising:
a storage system;
a processing system operatively coupled to the storage system; and
program instructions stored on the storage system that, when executed by the processing system, direct the computing apparatus to:
monitor power consumption information during builds of one or more software components in a build environment, wherein the build environment builds executable code from source code for the one or more software components;
identify one or more trends associated with the power consumption information based at least on the power consumption information satisfying one or more criteria;
identify one or more suggestions associated with the power consumption based at least on the one or more trends, wherein the one or more suggestions comprise at least a time-shift suggestion to move one or more future builds of the one or more software components from a first period to a second period or a location suggestion to move one or more future builds of the one or more software components from a first location to a second location; and
generate, for display, a summary, wherein the summary indicates at least the one or more trends and the one or more suggestions associated with the power consumption.
9. The computing apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the build environment comprises a plurality of host computing systems for a plurality of virtualized endpoints.
10. The computing apparatus of claim 8 , wherein identifying the one or more trends associated with the power consumption information based at least on the power consumption information satisfying one or more criteria comprises: identifying an estimated improved cost associated with the power consumption information; identifying a trend of the one or more trends based on an actual cost associated with the power consumption information satisfying one or more criteria in relation to the estimated improved cost.
11. The computing apparatus of claim 8 , wherein identifying the one or more trends associated with the power consumption information based at least on the power consumption information satisfying one or more criteria comprises:
identifying that the power consumption information associated with at least one build of the one or more builds exceeds a threshold.
12. The computing apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the power consumption information comprises at least a total power consumption used per build in a plurality of builds for the one or more software components.
13. The computing apparatus of claim 8 , wherein a trend of the one or more trends comprises a quantity of failed builds of the one or more software components in relation to a quantity of successful builds of the one or more software components.
14. A system comprising:
one or more computing systems that provide a build environment for one or more software components;
a monitoring computing system configured to:
obtain power consumption information associated with builds of the one or more software components, wherein each of the builds attempt to generate executable code from source code for the one or more software components;
identify one or more trends associated with the power consumption information based at least on the power consumption information satisfying one or more criteria;
identify one or more suggestions associated with power consumption based at least on the one or more trends, wherein the one or more suggestions comprise at least a time-shift suggestion to move one or more future builds of the one or more software components from a first period to a second period or a location suggestion to move one or more future builds of the one or more software components from a first location to a second location; and
generate, for display, a summary, wherein the summary indicates at least the one or more trends and the one or more suggestions.
