Abstract

Cloud computing is an emerging technology which provides unlimited access of versatile resources to users. The multifaceted and dynamic aspects of cloud computing require efficient and optimized techniques for resource provisioning and load balancing. Cloud monitoring is required identifying overutilized and underutilized of physical machines which hosting Virtual Machines (VMs). Load balancing is necessary for efficient and effective utilization of resources. Most of the authors have taken the objective to reduce the makespan for executing requests on multiple VMs. In this paper, a thorough review on scheduling and load balancing techniques has been done and different techniques have been analyzed on the basis of SLA Violations, CPU utilization, energy consumption and cost parameters.
