摘要:Cloud computing is service sharing technology. One of the important characteristics of cloud is, itprovides scalable resources needed for the application hosted on it.As cloud-based services become more dynamic, resource provisioning becomes more challenging. In the proposedsystem, a power efficient resource allocation scheme using the bio-inspired ant colony framework is introduced; inwhich customers are willing to host their applications on the provider’s cloud with a given SLA requirements forperformance such as throughput and response time. Since, the data centers hosting the applications consume hugeamounts of energy and cause huge operational costs, solutions that reduce energy consumption as well as operationalcosts are gaining importance. Thus, load balancing is done so as to transfer the load fairly among the available serversand also to hibernate the servers that are idle for a particular time. To optimize this approach, Load forecasting is doneto allocate minimum number of active servers to meet the current demand with a less power consumption.
