abstract="The high power consumption of data centers confronts the providers with major challenges. However, not only the servers and the cooling consume a huge amount of energy, but also the data center network architecture makes an important contribution. In this paper, we introduce different data center architectures and compare them regarding their power consumption. The results show that there are some differences which should not be neglected and that with only minor modifications of the architecture, it is possible to save a huge amount of energy.",
