Presently Cloud Computing is on high demand as it provides a way to reduce the cost of building infrastructure through virtualization of resources. Virtualization of resources requires a highly dynamic resource management mechanism. As cloud computing provides the facility to the cloud users to send multiple request simultaneously, there must be a self managing/provisioning scheme that all resources are made available to the requesting users in the efficient manner to satisfy their requirement and for improvement of resource utilization. In this paper we proposed an efficient framework named called EARA (Efficient Agent based Resource Allocation) for resource allocation based on agent computing on SaaS level in Cloud Computing. EARA Contain five different agents, each agent equipped with functionality to collect information regarding all resources available in actual cloud deployment based on signed SLA agreement, and then replies to the user with appropriate allocation or response code.
