Abstract Load balancing is treated as one of the important mechanisms for efficient resource allocation in cloud computing. In future there will appear a necessity of fully autonomic distributed systems to address the load balancing issues. With reference to this, we proposed a load balancing mechanism called Osmosis Load Balancing (OLB). OLB works on the principle of osmosis to reschedule the tasks in virtual machines. The solution is based on the Distributed Hash Table (DHT) with a chord overlay mechanism. The Chord overlay is used for managing bio inspired agents and status of the cloud. By simulation analysis, the proposed algorithm has shown better performance in different scenarios, both in heterogeneous and homogeneous clouds.

Cloud computing is the latest trend in large-scale distributed computing. It provides diverse services on demand to distributive resources such asservers, software, and databases. One of the challenging problems in cloud data centers is to manage the load of different reconfigurable virtual machines over one another. Thus, in the near future of cloud computing field, providing a mechanism for efficient resource management will be very significant. Many load balancing algorithms have been already implemented and executed to manage the resources efficiently and adequately. The objective of this paper is to analyze shortcomings of existing algorithms and implement a new algorithm which will give optimized load balancingresult.

Cloud computing is becoming more popular, unlike conventional computing, due to its added advantages. This is because it offers utility-based services to its subscribers upon their demand. Furthermore, this computing environment provides IT services to its users where they pay for every use. However, the increasing number of tasks requires virtual machines for them to be accomplished quickly. Load balancing a critical concern in cloud computing due to the massive increase in users' numbers. This paper proposes the best heuristic load balancing algorithm that will schedule a strategy for resource allocation that will minimize make span (completion time) in any technology that involves use cloud computing. The proposed algorithm performs better than other load balancing algorithms.

Cloud computing is a powerful technology of computing which renders flexible services anywhere to the user. Resource management and task scheduling are essential perspectives of cloud computing. One of the main problems of cloud computing was task scheduling. Usually task scheduling and resource management in cloud is a tough optimization issue at the time of considering quality of service needs. Huge works under task scheduling focuses only on deadline issues and cost optimization and it avoids the significance of availability, robustness and reliability. The main purpose of this study is to develop an Optimized Algorithm for Efficient Resource Allocation and Scheduling in Cloud Environment. This study uses PSO and R factor algorithm. The main aim of PSO algorithm is that tasks are scheduled to VM (virtual machines) to reduce the time of waiting and throughput of system. PSO is a technique inspired by social and collective behavior of animal swarms in nature and wherein particles search the problem space to predict near optimal or optimal solution. A hybrid algorithm combining PSO and R-factor has been developed with the purpose of reducing the processing time, make span and cost of task execution simultaneously. The test results and simulation reveals that the proposed method offers better efficiency than the previously prevalent approaches.

In this paper, a self-adaptive load balancing technique is proposed using live migration of heterogeneous virtual machines (VM) in a Hyper-V based cloud environment. A cloud supported plugin as a management activity within the infrastructure as a service strategy. It is proposed to assist the load balancing process in such a way so that all hypervisors are almost equally loaded once the overload status gets triggered. In the cloud computing environment, load balancing plays a major role if the large number of events triggered has a high impact on the performance of the system. The efficiency of cloud computing is based on the efficient load balancing having a self-adjustable technique using live migration of VMs across clusters of nodes. The proposed load balancing model is efficient in performance improvement by efficient resource utilization and also it helps to avoid the situation occurrence of server hanging by the cause of server overload within the infrastructure of multiple Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisors environment.

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.
