摘要：The number of Internet users is growing at an exponential rate every day. Large number of users tries to retrieve the data in many applications like examination results, which leads to very high load on a server. This also results in reduction of throughput and there is strong need for developing a system with an efficient load balancing algorithm to retrieve the intensive data within a reasonable response time. By the use of cloud technology, this can be achieved. Cloud Computing encompasses virtualization, distributed environment and provides on-demand services. The objective of this study was to balance the requests by identifying the IP address and use a predefined policy to retrieve the data from a distributed database environment using virtualization techniques.
