In one embodiment, a method for maintaining a threshold operating temperature in an information handling system includes: identifying an operating temperature associated with the information handling system; determining a first fan speed associated with one or more fans of the information handling system based on the operating temperature; causing the one or more fans to rotate based on the first fan speed; identifying that the operating temperature has increased to reach the threshold operating temperature; and in response to identifying that the operating temperature has increased to reach the threshold operating temperature: identifying a power consumption level associated with the information handling system; determining a second fan speed associated with the one or more fans based on the power consumption level; and causing the one or more fans to rotate based on the second fan speed.

A datacenter includes a heterogeneous node group efficiency management system that is coupled to node devices and that, based on a power consumption and performance associated with each node device, generates node group rankings that it uses to group subsets of the node devices into respective heterogeneous node groups. The heterogeneous node group efficiency management system then identifies workload characteristic(s) and performance requirement(s) for a workload provided for deployment, identifies a first heterogeneous node group that satisfies the performance requirement for the workload, and identifies first node device(s) that are included in the first heterogeneous node group and that are configured to perform the first workload having the workload characteristic(s) with a higher power efficiency than second node device(s) that are included in the first heterogeneous node group. The heterogeneous node group efficiency management system then deploys the workload on the first node device(s) in the first heterogeneous node group.
