Fleet elastic load balancing mechanism in cloud environment
Junjie Chen · Journal of Computer Applications · 2013
In order to overcome the defects of traditional rigid load balancing mechanism that it can not adapt to changing network environment,and to solve the problem of load balancing mechanisms in cloud environment that it can not take full advantage of elastic characteristics and Quality of Service(QoS) would be unstable,this paper proposed a new load balancing mechanism in cloud environment based on green computing resource pool strategy.It quantified the load according to the utilization rate of system resources and the quantization decided distribution of virtual machines.On the basis of the use of the virtual machines,resources would be recycled to improve resource utilization.The experimental results show that the response time stablizes around 2.5 seconds,the overall QoS has been obviously improved with the power consumption reduced,and the effectiveness of the mechanisms has been verified.
