As a result, several enterprises including IBM, Microsoft, Google, and Amazon have started to offer different cloud services to their customers. Due to the vast diversity in the available cloud services from the customer’s point of view, it has become difficult to decide whose services they should use and what the basis for their selection is. Currently, there is no framework that can allow customers to evaluate cloud offerings and rank them based on their ability to meet the user’s Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. A huge amount of data moves from user to host and hosts to user in the cloud environment. Based on the above two considerations, how to select appropriate host for accessing resources and creating a Virtual Machine (VM) to execute applications so that execution becomes more efficient and access cost becomes low are the challenging tasks. In this paper, a host selection model based on minimum network delay is proposed. The objective is to minimize propagation time of input and output data by selecting nearest host into the network and finally it minimizes the execution time of cloudlet.
