Since its emergence, cloud computing has continued to evolve thanks to its ability to present computing as consumable services paid by use, and the possibilities of resource scaling that it offers according to client’s needs. Models and appropriate schemes for resource scaling through consolidation service have been considerably investigated,mainly, at the infrastructure level to optimize costs and energy consumption. Consolidation efforts at the SaaS level remain very restrained mostly when proprietary software are in hand. In order to fill this gap and provide software licenses elastically regarding the economic and energy-aware considerations in the context of distributed cloud computing systems, this work deals with dynamic software consolidation in commercial cloud data centers 𝑫𝑺𝟑𝑪. Our solution is based on heuristic algorithms and allows reallocating software licenses at runtime by determining the optimal amount of resources required for their execution and freed unused machines. Simulation results showed the efficiency of our solution in terms of energy by 68.85% savings and costs by 80.01% savings. It allowed to free up to 75% physical machines and 76.5% virtual machines and proved its scalability in terms of average execution time while varying the number of software and the number of licenses alternately.

Cloud Data Centers

Cloud computing is a growing technology now-a-days, which provides various resources to perform complex tasks. These complex tasks can be performed with the help of datacenters. Data centers helps the incoming tasks by providing various resources like CPU, storage, network, bandwidth and memory, which has resulted in the increase of the total number of datacenters in the world. These data centers consume large volume of energy for performing the operations and which leads to high operation costs. Resources are the key cause for the power consumption in data centers along with the air and cooling systems. Energy consumption in data centers is comparative to the resource usage. Excessive amount of energy consumption by datacenters falls out in large power bills. There is a necessity to increase the energy efficiency of such data centers. We have proposed an Energy aware dynamic virtual machine consolidation (EADVMC) model which focuses on pm selection, vm selection, vm placement phases, which results in the reduced energy consumption and the Quality of service (QoS) to a considerable level.

Vm Consolidation

With the increasing size of cloud data centers, the number of users and virtual machines (VMs) increases rapidly. The requests of users are entertained by VMs residing on physical servers. The dramatic growth of internet services results in unbalanced network resources. Resource management is an important factor for the performance of a cloud. Various techniques are used to manage the resources of a cloud efficiently. VM-consolidation is an intelligent and efficient strategy to balance the load of cloud data centers. VM-placement is an important subproblem of the VM-consolidation problem that needs to be resolved. The basic objective of VM-placement is to minimize the utilization rate of physical machines (PMs). VM-placement is used to save energy and cost. An enhanced levy-based particle swarm optimization algorithm with variable sized bin packing (PSOLBP) is proposed for solving the VM-placement problem. Moreover, the best-fit strategy is also used with the variable sized bin packing problem (VSBPP). Simulations are done to authenticate the adaptivity of the proposed algorithm. Three algorithms are implemented in Matlab. The given algorithm is compared with simple particle swarm optimization (PSO) and a hybrid of levy flight and particle swarm optimization (LFPSO). The proposed algorithm efficiently minimized the number of running PMs. VM-consolidation is an NP-hard problem, however, the proposed algorithm outperformed the other two algorithms.

Cloud computing environment is regarded as a kind of multi-tenant computing mode. With virtulization as a support technology, cloud computing realizes the integration of multiple workloads in one server through the package and seperation of virtual machines. Aiming at the contradiction between the heterogeneous applications and uniform shared resource pool, using the idea of bin packing, the multidimensional resource scheduling problem is analyzed in this paper. We carry out some example analysis in one-dimensional resource scheduling, two-dimensional resource schduling and three-dimensional resource scheduling. The results shows that the resource utilization of cloud data centers will be improved greatly when the resource sheduling is conducted after reorganizing rationally the heterogeneous demands.
