Implementing GPU workload scheduling based on real-time performance metrics is the priority action to optimize AI data center management and improve energy efficiency while maintaining performance. Using tools like NVIDIA DCGM, this approach monitors metrics (e.g., power usage, utilization) and schedules workloads to balance load, reduce idle time, and leverage power-saving features (e.g., GPU Boost). This aligns with NVIDIA's "AI Infrastructure and Operations Fundamentals" for energy-efficient GPU management without sacrificing throughput.
Disabling power management (A) increases consumption unnecessarily. Adding GPUs (C) raises costs without addressing efficiency. More cooling (D) mitigates symptoms, not root causes. NVIDIA prioritizes dynamic scheduling for optimization.
