LOAD BALANCING ISSUES AND ITS SOLUTION IN CLOUD COMPUTING: A REVIEW

Now-a-days, cloud computing has become a cornerstone of modern technology, driving innovation, efficiency and accessibility across various industries and application. Distributed computing solves the difficulty of using distributed autonomous machines and communicating with each other over a network. Cloud computing provides clients with a range of services and capabilities that enhances productivity, accessibility and scalability while reducing the need for extensive hardware and infrastructure investments. When interest in distributed computing rises, it implies that more individuals, businesses, and organizations are exploring, adopting, and implementing distributed computing solutions. This surge in interest leads to increase in data traffic. There are two solutions for the issue of increase in data traffic, one is to server optimization (or) server performance enhancement (upgrade single server to a high performance server) but upgraded server may exceed its capacity (overload).Another one is multi servers. Ulti-server configurations are common in scenarios where the demands of an application or service exceed the capabilities of a single server, and the distribution of tasks across multiple servers is necessary for optimal performance and reliability. When there are multiple servers, there is an issue i.e. Load Adjusting. [1] Load balancing is one of the critical issues in cloud computing. In a cloud environment, where resources are often dynamically allocated and distributed, load balancing plays a central role in managing workloads efficiently. Load balancing in cloud computing is a technique used to distribute computing workloads and network traffic across multiple servers or resources within a cloud environment. The primary goal of load balancing is to optimize resource utilization, prevent individual servers from becoming overloaded, and ensure that the overall system can handle varying levels of demand efficiently. Here we also discussed about the hybrid of Cat and Mouse Optimization and Grey Wolf Optimization algorithms. This paper refers to Cloud Computing, Load balancing techniques, Load balancing algorithms.

In present days cloud computing is one of the greatest platform which provides storage of data in very lower cost and available for all time over the internet.But it has more critical issue like security, load management and fault tolerance. In this paper we are discussing Load Balancing approach. Resource scheduling management design on Cloud computing is an important problem. Scheduling model, cost, quality of service, time, and conditions of the request for access to services are factors to be focused. A good task scheduler should adapt its scheduling strategy to the changing environment and load balancing Cloud task scheduling policy. Cloud Computing is high utility software having the ability to change the IT software industry and making the software even more attractive. It has also changed the way IT companies used to buy and design hardware. The elasticity of resources without paying a premium for large scale is unprecedented in the history of IT industry. The increase in web traffic and different services are increasing day by day making load balancing a big research topic. Cloud computing is a new technology which uses virtual machine instead of physical machine to host, store and network the different components. Load balancers are used for assigning load to different virtual machines in such a way that none of the nodes gets loaded heavily or lightly. The load balancing needs to be done properly because failure in any one of the node can lead to unavailability of data.

Load Balancing is an important factor handling resource during running and execution time in real time applications. Virtual machines are used for dynamically access and share the resources. As per current scenario cloud computing is played major for storage, resource accessing, resource pooling and internet based service offering. Usage of cloud computing services is dynamically increased such as online shopping, education, ticketing, etc. Many users can use the cloud resources and load balancing is used for adjusting the virtual machine and balance the node. Our proposed virtualized genetic algorithms are to provide balanced virtual machine services in Hybrid cloud. The proposed algorithm and experiments are implemented by using Cloud simulator. In this paper the experiments are done with cloud computing models, Virtual Machine allocation, load balancing and simulations. Also compare the results using response time, throughput and turnaround time using cloud sim. The accuracy can be compared with existing load balancing techniques.

Cloud computing is the on-demand delivery of IT resources over the Internet with pay-as-you-go pricing. Instead of buying, owning, and maintaining physical data centers and servers, you can access technology services, such as computing power, storage, and databases, on an as-needed basis from a cloud provider like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google cloud. Cloud computing is one of the most growing technologies. The fundamental idea behind cloud computing is to distribute an array of computing services by unifying and scheduling a pool of computing resources, thereby minimizing the burden on the users and helping them focus on their core businesses. These computing resources are hosted on virtual hosts and distributed on-demand to the users by cloud service providers. For efficient resource utilization, systematic load balancing of incoming user traffic across virtual hosts is imperative. Aim of this paper is to design and implement Network load balancer with cross zone feature which balance incoming user requests and avoid the problem of server down in real scenario. Elastic Load Balancer automatically equally distribute incoming traffic to the available EC2, targets, like Amazon EC2 instances, IP addresses containersand Lambda functions. Load balancer effectively distribute load equally on available server and AZ to improve fault tolerance and availability. It can manage the differing load of your application traffic in one Availability Zone or over different Availability Zones.

Information and communication technology has been growing rapidly for the last few decades. In today's age of information and globalization massive computing power is desired to generate business insights and competitive advantage [1]. Cloud Computing is an emerging technology and has attracted a lot of attention in both commercial and academic spheres. It is growing very fast and provides an alternative to conventional computing. There are cloud service providers who provide services in a flexible manner. The main goal of cloud service provider is to establish an efficient load balancing algorithm which ensures a fair distribution of loads among virtual machines and better resource utilization. In this paper we present a heuristic based load balanced scheduling model for efficient execution of tasks. The proposed model balances the loads coming from several users among datacenters and hence it offers better resource utilization and high availability in the form of improved response time and turnaround time. The proposed algorithm is implemented using CloudSim simulator and the result shows that the proposed algorithm outperforms to existing algorithms on similar objectives.

In Cloud Computing (CC) environment, load balancing refers to the process of optimizing resources of virtual machines. Load balancing in the CC environment is one of the analytical approaches utilized to ensure indistinguishable workload distribution and effective utilization of resources. This is because only by ensuring effective balance of dynamic workload results in higher user satisfaction and optimal allocation of resource, therefore improve cloud application performance. Moreover, a paramount objective of load balancing is task scheduling because surges in the number of clients utilizing cloud lead to inappropriate job scheduling. Hence, issues encircling task scheduling has to be addressed. In this work a method called, Ford Fulkerson and Newey West Regression-based Dynamic Load Balancing (FF-NWRDLB) in CC environment is proposed. The FF-NWRDLB method is split into two sections, namely, task scheduling and dynamic load balancing. First, Ford Fulkerson-based Task Scheduling is applied to the cloud user requested tasks obtained from Personal Cloud Dataset. Here, employing Ford Fulkerson function based on the flow of tasks, energy-efficient task scheduling is ensured. The execution of asymmetrical scientific applications can be smoothly influenced by an unbalanced workload distribution between computing resources. In this context load balancing signifies as one of the most significant solution to enhance utilization of resources. However, selecting the best accomplishing load balancing technique is not an insignificant piece of work. For example, selecting a load balancing model does not work in circumstances with dynamic behavior. In this context, a machine learning technique called, Newey West Regression-based dynamic load balancer is designed to balance the load in a dynamic manner at run time, therefore ensuring accurate data communication. The FF-NWRDLB method has been compared to recent algorithms that use the markov optimization and the prediction scheme to achieve load balancing. Our experimental results show that our proposed FF-NWRDLB method outperforms other state of the art schemes in terms of energy consumption, throughput, delay, bandwidth and task scheduling efficiency in CC environment.

Cloud computing is another pattern rising concept in IT industry with immense inevilability of framework furthermore, resources. Cloud computing is build up by conglomerating two terms in the area of innovation. Initial is Cloud and second is computing. Cloud comprises of heterogeneous assets. It is a work of immense framework with no significance with name Cloud. Load Balancing is a vital part of distributed computing scenario. Productive load adjustment plan guarantees effective asset usage by provisioning of assets to cloud client's on-request premise in pay-as-you-use. Load Balancing may indeed, even help organizing clients by applying proper planning criteria. This paper presents a review on load balancing methods in cloud computing with its various techniques. The objective of this paper is to study the various existing load balancing techniques on various parameters utilized to compare the current techniques with each other.

Cloud computing enables the internet based computing to everywhere. In cloud computing the task scheduling and load balancing is the important issue that must be considered in data centers. In cloud platform service providers allocate the resources based on the available resources this will increase the QoS. The process of distributing workloads is a load balancing Technique. In this paper focusing the load balancing between the virtual machine. Load balancing are different types that is network load, memory capacity, storage capacity and CPU load. Load balancing supports failover, enabling scalability and decreases costs and maximizes the resource availability. This paper presents the detailed review of load balancing with machine learning technique such as naïve bayes, random forest, Decision Tree and Support Vector Machine. By these machine learning model, SVM algorithm significantly to classify the incoming request to reduce the processing time (makespan). Also provide the moth flame optimization technique for dynamic task scheduling to make better scheduling under different load condition. We have experimented and evaluated this algorithm in a cloud simulation environment; we obtain better outcome than some other well-known algorithms. The Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed technique has a better development in terms of reducing the makespan time and load balancing.

In the field of cloud computing, efficient task scheduling plays a vital role. Cloud computing is an on-demand service where resources are shared virtually by the users to complete their tasks. The main concept of task scheduling is to execute the tasks in such an order that can enhance the performance with full resource utilization and minimum loss. Already a lot of scheduling algorithm exists targeting to various goals like reducing execution time, cost, makespan and increase resource utilization, load balancing, etc. In this work, we have mainly carried out the performance analysis and comparison among various well-known task scheduling algorithms. The algorithms are examined and implemented in a well-known cloud simulator (CloudSim) to observe their performances by varying different parameters. Finally, the performance metrics like makespan, waiting time, turnaround time, throughput, and load balancing are observed by plotting the results graphically. Along with the comparative analysis, this work also assists one to identify a better scheduling algorithm based on different scheduling constraints and criteria.

The Cloud computing is a rapidly emerging distributed system paradigm that offers a huge amount of IT resources as utility services at a reduced cost and flexible schemes. The key of such flexibility is an efficient load balancer that offers better management and utilization of virtualized underlying cloud infrastructures. However, most of the existing load balancers in cloud computing are based on either centralized or fully distributed architectures while the idea of harnessing multiple load balancers in a hierarchical structure to improve the sever load and job response time is still under studied. Therefore, this paper, aims at bridging this gap by providing a comparative study between the three load balancing architectures in cloud computing: centralized, decentralized and hierarchical load balancers. The experimental results suggest that the hierarchical architecture for load balancers best suits the public cloud environment and call for further research to test whether these results can be generalized for other types of clouds.

The flexibility of cloud computing to provide a dynamic and adaptable infrastructure in the context of information technology and service quality has made it one of the most challenging issues in the computer industry. Task scheduling is a major challenge in cloud computing. Scheduling tasks so that they may be processed by the most effective cloud network resources has been identified as a critical challenge for maximizing cloud computing’s performance. Due to the complexity of the issue and the size of the search space, random search techniques are often used to find a solution. Several algorithms have been offered as possible solutions to this issue. In this study, we employ a combination of the genetic algorithm (GA) and the gravitational emulation local search (GELS) algorithm to overcome the task scheduling issue in cloud computing. GA and the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms are compared to the suggested algorithm to demonstrate its efficacy. The suggested algorithm outperforms the GA and PSO, as shown by the experiments.

Cloud computing(CC), which utilizes massively virtualized data centers to deliver quick and affordable computing solutions, has developed ‎into an established industrial standard that is growing quickly. To handle such a massive amount of data effectively, cloud computing mostly ‎relies on automation and dynamic resource management. In cloud computing, load balancing (LB) is a vital technique for maximizing ‎resource utilization and making sure that no resource is used up. Without the requirement for physical infrastructure, cloud ‎LB allows online platforms to adjust their resources in response to traffic demands. In a cloud environment, workload and resource allocation entail determining the best way to divide up work among several servers. For increasingly severe uncertainty problems, traditional LB ‎approaches are simple but ineffective; for this reason, meta-heuristic methods are employed. This algorithm is heuristic and is independent ‎of the complexity of the challenges. Meta-heuristics approaches based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) are employed to analyze real-time data ‎and intelligently distribute workload among servers. This ensures efficient operations by preventing bottlenecks and enabling proactive LB ‎decisions. The review offers a thorough analysis of meta-heuristics techniques based on artificial intelligence (AI) for static and dynamic LB ‎in both homogeneous and heterogeneous cloud systems.

Approximately 55 percent of the world’s 7.3 billion people access the Internet, creating a significant demand in information technology (IT) services for both organizations and consumers. The number of data centers continue to increase to meet this demand, consuming 2 percent of the energy produced worldwide. Many organizations moving towards cloud computing due to its ability to meet users’ needs on demand. Greening cloud computing technology has become an important aspect of an organization’s design and use of cloud computing. One aspect of greening the cloud is through efficiently using cloud-based resources. In this study, we focus on the resource allocation applications of cloud computing technologies to green an organizations cloud. We design a pricing and allocation mechanism for a private cloud computing service that allows the firm to effectively load balance their cloud computing resources. Our optimal pricing mechanism is a dynamic pricing model, which maximizes the net value of users in a private cloud computing service. Additionally, we create a job allocation algorithm based on our dynamic pricing model to load balance the cloud. We show that balancing the job allocation such that the number of jobs at individual resource servers as close to equal as possible is optimal. Furthermore, simulations were run on the allocation mechanism to examine the effects on the cloud resources while gaining insight to effectively distribution resources to public clouds. Our model can help organizations to efficiently distribute their cloud-based resources, which allows for a greener cloud computing system.
