Study and Analysis of Various Existing Techniques for the Load Balancing in Cloud Computing Environment

Abstract

Cloud computing is the technology that uses the internet to store data and applications. Various
issues and challenges in cloud computing are load balancing, fault tolerance, availability, Virtual
Machine (VM) relocation etc that needs to be deal with. But, the main challenge is load balancing of
resources. Load balancing techniques are used to equally distribute the resources among all nodes in
distributed system and it will help in reducing the response time. In this paper, several static and
dynamic load balancing approaches under different categories are discussed also compare each
algorithm using some performance parameter.
