Emerging cloud computing technology is a big step in virtual computing. Cloud computing provides services to clients through the internet. Cloud computing enables easy access to resources distributed all over the world. Increase in the number of the population has further increased the challenge. The main challenge of cloud computing technology is to achieve efficient load balancing. Load balancing is a process of assigning load to available resources in such a way that it avoids overloading of resources. If load balancing is performed efficiently, it improves QoS metric including cost, throughput, response time, resource utilization and performance. Efficient load balancing techniques also provide better user satisfaction. Various load balancing algorithms are used in different scenarios for ensuring the same. In the current research, we will study different algorithms for load balancing and benefits and limitations caused to the system due to the algorithms. In this paper, we will compare static and dynamic load balancing algorithms for various measures of efficiency. These will be useful for future research in the concerned field.

Cloud computing is a vigorous technology by which a user can get software, application, operating system and hardware as a service without actually possessing it and paying only according to the usage. Cloud Computing is a hot topic of research for the researchers these days. With the rapid growth of Interne technology cloud computing have become main source of computing for small as well big IT companies. In the cloud computing milieu the cloud data centers and the users of the cloud-computing are globally situated, therefore it is a big challenge for cloud data centers to efficiently handle the requests which are coming from millions of users and service them in an efficient manner. Load balancing is a critical aspect that ensures that all the resources and entities are well balanced such that no resource or entity neither is under loaded nor overloaded. The load balancing algorithms can be static or dynamic.  Load balancing in this environment means equal distribution of workload across all the nodes. Load balancing provides a way of achieving the proper utilization of resources and better user satisfaction. Hence, use of an appropriate load balancing algorithm is necessary for selecting the virtual machines or servers. This paper focuses on the load balancing algorithm which distributes the incoming jobs among VMs optimally in cloud data centers. In this paper, we have reviewed several existing load balancing mechanisms and we have tried to address the problems associated with them.

<span lang="EN-US">Load balancing is crucial to ensure scalability, reliability, minimize response time, and processing time and maximize resource utilization in cloud computing. However, the load fluctuation accompanied with the distribution of a huge number of requests among a set of virtual machines (VMs) is challenging and needs effective and practical load balancers. In this work, a two listed throttled load balancer (TLT-LB) algorithm is proposed and further simulated using the CloudAnalyst simulator. The TLT-LB algorithm is based on the modification of the conventional TLB algorithm to improve the distribution of the tasks between different VMs. The performance of the TLT-LB algorithm compared to the TLB, round robin (RR), and active monitoring load balancer (AMLB) algorithms has been evaluated using two different configurations. Interestingly, the TLT-LB significantly balances the load between the VMs by reducing the loading gap between the heaviest loaded and the lightest loaded VMs to be 6.45% compared to 68.55% for the TLB and AMLB algorithms. Furthermore, the TLT-LB algorithm considerably reduces the average response time and processing time compared to the TLB, RR, and AMLB algorithms.</span>

Cloud computing is one of the latest and upcoming paradigm that offers huge benefits such as reduced time to market, unlimited computing power and flexible computing capabilities. It is a model that provides an on-demand network access to a shared pool of computing resources It comprises a large number of concepts primarily Load Balancing, Scheduling, etc. This paper discusses load balancing as a mechanism to distribute the workload evenly to all nodes in the system to achieve a higher resource utilization and user satisfaction. It helps in allocation and de-allocation of instances of applications without   failure. This paper reports a new load balancing technique and its comparison with existing algorithm providing better results.

Cloud Computing is an era when various trends showed up. It is the type of development, based solely on the Internet. The computer technology has brought in several changes along the years. SaaS is an architecture that comes under computing technology, involving the use of powerful processors, that helps in transforming data centers, scaling services involving computing technology across all fields. Various trends are opening in the field of Cloud Computing, developed mainly on Internet basis and use of computing technology. The computing architecture of SaaS along with powerful processors, are transforming data centers into a huge scale of pools of computing services.  Balancing load efficiently is one of the key areas involved in cloud computing. Services that are of very high quality can be subscribed for lower cost, along with completely reliable network connections with their bandwidth being increased , providing a flexible service residing in remote data centers. Load Balancing is the concept involved in the storage of computing resources. It is the partition of work which requires processing between two or more number of computers and/or CPUs, storage devices which ultimately leads to providing higher efficiency with much faster service. The improved WRR algorithm which is improved has been proposed in order to distribute the workload efficiently, thereby enhancing various other features that are associated with it.

Cloud computing uses the concepts of scheduling and load balancing to migrate tasks to underutilized VMs for effectively sharing the resources. The scheduling of the nonpreemptive tasks in the cloud computing environment is an irrecoverable restraint and hence it has to be assigned to the most appropriate VMs at the initial placement itself. Practically, the arrived jobs consist of multiple interdependent tasks and they may execute the independent tasks in multiple VMs or in the same VM’s multiple cores. Also, the jobs arrive during the run time of the server in varying random intervals under various load conditions. The participating heterogeneous resources are managed by allocating the tasks to appropriate resources by static or dynamic scheduling to make the cloud computing more efficient and thus it improves the user satisfaction. Objective of this work is to introduce and evaluate the proposed scheduling and load balancing algorithm by considering the capabilities of each virtual machine (VM), the task length of each requested job, and the interdependency of multiple tasks. Performance of the proposed algorithm is studied by comparing with the existing methods.

Recently cloud computing technology has been implemented by many companies. This technology requires a really high reliability that closely related to hardware specification and management resource quality used. Adequate hardware would make resource allocation easier. On the other hand, resource allocation will be harder if the resources are limited. This is a common condition in a developing cloud service provider. In this paper, a load balancing algorithm to allocate resources in cloud computing environment that has limited resources has been proposed. This algorithm is developed by taking the advantages of the existing algorithms, Equally Spread Current Execution and Throttled. We merge those algorithm without losing the advantages and we try to eliminate the shortcoming of each algorithm. The result shows that this algorithm is able to give a significant improvement in the limited resources environment. In addition, the algorithm also able to compete with the other algorithm in the more adequate resource environment. Based on the consistent results, this algorithm is expected to be more adaptive in different resources environment.
