Description
Summary:Cloud computing is an emerging technique with remarkable features such as scalability, high flexibility, and reliability. Since this field is growing exponentially, more users are attracted to fast and better service. Virtual Machine (VM) allocation plays a crucial role in cloud computing optimization; hence, resource distribution is not impacted by machine failure and is migrated with no downtime. Therefore, effective management of virtual machines is necessary for increasing profit, energy-saving, etc. However, it could utilize the virtual machine resources more efficiently because of the increased load, so load balancing is more concentrated. The predominant purpose of load balancing is to balance the available load equally among the nodes to avoid overloading or underloading problems. The present study conducted an extensive survey on virtual machine placement to describe the application of prediction algorithms and to provide more efficient, reliable, high response, and low overhead VM placement. Furthermore, the survey attempted to overview the challenges in load balancing in VM placement and various ideas of state-of-the-art techniques to resolve the issues.
