Abstract Cloud platform load balancing has become one of the essential elements in modern cloud platform operations. However, there are still some problems in the evaluation methods of cloud platform load balance, such as unreasonable evaluation indexes and lack of comprehensive evaluation methods. This paper first proposes a performance evaluation method of cloud platform load balancing capabilities. This method analyzes the characteristics of the cloud platform and the actual needs of users, designs and proposes a cloud platform load balancing capability evaluation system, quantitatively analyzes and quantifies specific indexes, and uses the Analytic Hierarchy Process to determine the weight of each index. Finally, we deploy and test our method on the OpenStack cloud platform. Experiments show that the evaluation results of the method proposed in this paper are consistent with the actual results, which verifies the feasibility and rationality of the method proposed in this paper.
