Cloud Computing by Implementing State and Random-Based Virtual Machine Load Balancing Model

The resilient concept of cloud computing (CC) enables individuals and businesses to access the necessary services following their requirements.The methodology presents various functionalities like storage solutions, deployment platforms, convenient admittance to online services, and more.A significant issue in CC is load balancing (LB), which reduces the performance and effectiveness of the resources.The LB can be attained through (Task / Virtual Machine) scheduling and allocation.This research considers virtual machine (VM) allocation, which allocates VM to a suitable physical machine (PM).Implementing an efficient VM allocation approach is essential for mitigating energy consumption (EC) and service level agreement (SLA) breaches.This study presents an effectual LB model for CC based on state and randomization.Based on host utilization, the proposed approach first identifies the PM's current state (high, medium, and low).Next, select the suitable PM for VM allocation using a randomization approach.The Cloudsim toolkit is employed for simulating the suggested technique, and the PlanetLab workload is used to evaluate the performance regarding EC and SLA violations.The proposed approach is compared with MFPED (Medium-Fit Power Efficient Decreasing) and HVMAP (Hybrid VM Allocation and Placement).The experimental outcome shows that the proposed technique significantly lowers EC by 40.81% and 39.76% and SLA violation by 96.81% and 95.58% for MFPED and HVMAP methods.
