Cloud Computing is an emerging field in the IT industry. Cloud computing provides computing services over the Internet. Cloud Computing demand increasing drastically, which has enforced cloud service provider to ensure proper resource utilization with less cost and less energy consumption. In recent time various consolidation problems found in cloud computing like the task, VM, and server consolidation. These consolidation problems become challenging for resource utilization in cloud computing. We found in the literature review that there is a high level of coupling in resource utilization, cost, and energy consumption. The main challenge for cloud service provider is to maximize the resource utilization, reduce the cost and minimize the energy consumption. The dynamic task consolidation of virtual machines can be a way to solve the problem. This paper presents the comparative study of various task consolidation algorithms.

The cloud computing environment is accomplishing cloud workload by distributing between several nodes or shift to the higher resource so that no computing resource will be overloaded. However, several techniques are used for the management of computing workload in the cloud environment, but still, it is an exciting domain of investigation and research. Control of the workload and scaling of cloud resources are some essential aspects of the cloud computing environment. A well-organized load balancing plan ensures adequate resource utilization. The auto-scaling is a technique to include or terminate additional computing resources based on the scaling policies without involving humans efforts. In the present paper, we developed a method for optimal use of cloud resources by the implementation of a modified auto-scaling feature. We also incorporated an auto-scaling controller for the optimal use of cloud resources.

Data centers are the main nerve of the Internet because of its hosting, storage, cloud computing and other services. All these services require a lot of work and resources, such as energy and cooling. The main problem is how to improve the work of data centers through increased resource utilization by using virtual host simulations and exploiting all server resources. In this paper, we have considered memory resources, where Virtual machines were distributed to hosts after comparing the virtual machines with the host from where the memory and putting the virtual machine on the appropriate host, this will reduce the host machines in the data centers and this will improve the performance of the data centers, in terms of power consumption and the number of servers used and cost.

With the advancement in the science and technology, cloud computing has become a recent trend in environment with immense requirement of infrastructure and resources. Load balancing of cloud computing environments is an important matter of concern. The migration of the overloaded virtual machines (VMs) to the underloaded VM with optimized resource utilization is the effective way of the load balancing. In this paper, a new VM migration algorithm for the load balancing in the cloud is proposed. The migration algorithm proposed (EGSA-VMM) is based on exponential gravitational search algorithm which is the integration of gravitational search algorithm and exponential weighted moving average theory. In our approach, the migration is done based on the migration cost and QoS. The experimentation of proposed EGSA-based VM migration algorithm is compared with ACO and GSA. The simulation of experiments shows that the proposed EGSA-VMM algorithm achieves load balancing and reasonable resource utilization, which outperforms existing migration strategies in terms of number of VM migrations and number of SLA violations.

Cloud computing has become more and more popular  with  the  widely  deployment  of  several  cloud infrastructures.  Infrastructure-as-a-service  (IaaS) Cloud  computing  replaces  bare  computer hardware. The cloud user  will use the virtual  machines (VMs)  to  fullfil  their  computing  requirements.  Among the  components  of  IaaS  cloud  software  stack,  the resource  allocation  module  is  very  important  as  it selects suitable VMs and the place to execute VMs. This paper  focuses  on  studying  and  classifying  algorithms used  in  the  resource  allocation  module.  The  issues  of how to apply those algorithms are also discussed.

On-demand resource management is a key characteristic of cloud computing. Cloud providers should support the computational resource sharing in a fair way to ensure that no user gets much better resources than others. Another goal is to improve the resource utilization by minimizing the resource fragmentation when mapping virtual machines to physical servers. The focus of this paper is the proposal of a game theoretic resources allocation algorithm that considers the fairness among users and the resources utilization for both. The experiments with an FUGA implementation on an 8-node server cluster show the optimality of this algorithm in keeping fairness by comparing with the evaluation of the Hadoop scheduler. The simulations based on Google workload trace demonstrate that the algorithm is able to reduce resource wastage and achieve a better resource utilization rate than other allocation mechanisms.

Cloud computing is an instant use of resources and it is a trending technology in the field of computer science. Here, many jobs will be arriving continuously with different job size, at that point of time, allocating of resources for suitable virtual machines without allowing virtual machine to starving is a hindrance job. So, to avoid this hindrance, an algorithm Dynamic Computation of Threshold Value is proposed (DCTV) and based on the threshold value the jobs are classified in the initial stage, so this classification leads to allocation of resources precisely and efficient resource utilization. The experimental result shows that by using dynamic computation of threshold value the allocation of resource time is reduced and classification accuracy is improved compared to manual computation of threshold value.
