Offering “Computing as a utility” on pay per use plan, Cloud computing has emerged as a technology of ease and flexibility for thousands of users over last few years. Distribution of dynamic workload among available servers and efficient utilization of existing resources in datacenter is one of the major concerns in Cloud computing. The load balancing issue needs to take into consideration the utilization of servers, i.e. the resultant utilization should not exceed the preset upper limits to avoid service level agreement (SLA) violation and should not fall beneath stipulated lower limits to avoid keeping some servers in active use. Scheduling of workload is regarded as an optimization problem that considers many varying criterion such as dynamic environment, priority of incoming applications, their deadlines etc. to improve resource utilization and overall performance of Cloud computing. In this work, a Genetic Algorithm (GA) based novel load balancing mechanism is proposed. Though not done in this work, in future, we aim to compare performance of proposed algorithms with existing mechanisms such as first come first serve (FCFS), Round Robin (RR) and other search algorithms through simulations.

It has already been proven that VMs are over-utilized in the initial stages and are underutilized in the later stages. Due to the random utilization of the CPU, resources are sometimes heavily loaded whereas other resources are idle. Load imbalance causes service level agreement (SLA) violations resulting in poor quality of service (QoS) aided by the imperfect management of resources. An effective load balancing mechanism helps to achieve balanced utilization, which maximizes the throughput, availability, and reliability and reduces the response and migration time. The proposed algorithm can effectively minimize the response and the migration time and maximize reliability, and throughput. This research also helps to understand the load balancing policies and analysis of other research works.

The cloud computing is the architecture that is decentralized in nature due to which various issues in the network get raised which reduces its efficiency. The exchange of data over the network is also continuously increasing. New advanced technology, cloud computing is becoming popular because of providing the above services beneficially. Other vital technologies like virtualization and scalability by designing virtual machines in cloud computing. In cloud computing, web traffic and service provisioning are increasing day by day, so load balancing is becoming a big research issue in cloud computing. Cloud Computing is a new propensity emerging in the IT environment within huge requirements of infrastructure and resources. The load Balancing technique for cloud computing is a vital aspect of the cloud computing environment. Peerless Load balancing scheme ensures splendid resource utilization by provisioning resources to cloud users on-demand services basis in a pay-as-you-use manner. The technique of Load Balancing may further support prioritizing requests of users/clients by applying appropriate scheduling criteria. This paper presents various load balancing schemes in different cloud environments based on requirements specified in the Service Level Agreement (SLA).

Cloud computing provides on demand service on internet using network of remote servers. The pivotal role for any cloud environment would be to schedule tasks and the virtual machine scheduling have key role in maintaining Quality of Service (QOS) and Service Level Agreement (SLA). Task scheduling is the process of scheduling task (user requests) to certain resources and it is an NP-complete problem. The primary objectives of scheduling algorithms are to minimize makespan and improve resource utilization. In this research work an attempt is made to implement Artificial Neural Network (ANN), which is a methodology in machine learning technique and it is applied to implement task scheduling. It is observed that neural network trained with genetic algorithm will outperforms default genetic algorithm by an average efficiency of 25.56%.


Cloud computing is a technology in the field of computing which offer services to the customer from anywhere at any time [1]. In the cloud, resources are shared all around the work for quick servicing to the customer. The aggregation of two terms is referred as cloud computing. The term “cloud” is a pool of different resources offers services to the end customers and “computing” is done based on the Service Level Agreement (SLA) to make the resources efficiently to the customers. Load balancing is an important challenge in the environment of the cloud to increase the utilization of resources [3]. Here we proposed an algorithm which is based on load balancing and service broker policy. We user two representative thin the proposed approach local representative and global representative Local user representative is used to predict the parameters of user task and based on priority it allocate the task to the Virtual Machine (VM). Then for scheduling the task and provide the services to the users based on the available cloud brokers global user representative used Dynamic Optimal Load-Aware Service Broker (DOLASB).we used two scenario with different no. of user requests , in these scenario result of our proposed method is better as compared with the other existing methods in terms s of Execution Time, Makespan, Waiting Time, Energy Efficiency and Throughput.

BACKGROUND: Cloud computing is considered as an on-demand service resource with the applications towards data center on pay per user basis. For allocating the resources appropriately for the satisfaction of user needs, an effective and reliable resource allocation method is required. Because of the enhanced user demand, the allocation of resources has now considered as a complex and challenging task when a physical machine is overloaded, Virtual Machines share its load by utilizing the physical machine resources. Previous studies lack in energy consumption and time management while keeping the Virtual Machine at the different server in turned on state. AIM AND OBJECTIVE: The main aim of this research work is to propose an effective resource allocation scheme for allocating the Virtual Machine from an ad hoc sub server with Virtual Machines. EXECUTION MODEL: The execution of the research has been carried out into two sections, initially, the location of Virtual Machines and Physical Machine with the server has been taken place and subsequently, the cross-validation of allocation is addressed. For the sorting of Virtual Machines, Modified Best Fit Decreasing algorithm is used and Multi-Machine Job Scheduling is used while the placement process of jobs to an appropriate host. Artificial Neural Network as a classifier, has allocated jobs to the hosts. Measures, viz. Service Level Agreement violation and energy consumption are considered and fruitful results have been obtained with a 37.7 of reduction in energy consumption and 15% improvement in Service Level Agreement violation.

Cloud Security was provided for the services such as storage, network, applications and software through internet. The Security was given at each layer (Saas, Paas, and Iaas), in each layer, there are some security threats which became the major problem in cloud computing. In Saas, the security issues are mainly present in Web Application services and this issue can be overcome by web application scanners and service level agreement(SLA). In Paas, the major problem is Data Transmission. During transmission of data, some data may be lost or modified. The PaaS environment accomplishes proficiency to some extent through duplication of information. The duplication of information makes high accessibility of information for engineers and clients. However, data is never fully deleted instead the pointers to the data are deleted. In order to overcome this problem the techniques that used are encryption[12], data backup. In Iaas the security threat that occurs in is virtualization and the techniques that are used to overcome the threats are Dynamic Security Provisioning(DSC), operational security procedure, for which Cloud Software is available in the market, for e.g. Eucalyptus, Nimbus 6.
