Load Allocation of Virtual Machines based on Enhanced Throttled Load Balancing Algorithm

Abstract

Today’s world is fully dependent on the cloud services and it has become more than mandatory to prevent the faults that occur during the process. Cloud computing has grown tremendously in the past few years and the demand for its services are also drastically increasing all over the world. Virtualization technology is the base for cloud computing.  Virtual machines are provisioned during virtualization and care should be taken to handle the faults that arise during this process. To facilitate the proper functioning of the Virtual Machines (VMs), the proposed work uses the technique of an Enhanced Throttled Load Balancing Algorithm to efficiently allocate load to the VMs to the particular task and proactively handling faults. Cloud analyst, a GUI simulator is used to compare and analyse the performance and load balancing factors during virtualization and allocate load to the VM based on the outcome.
