A Survey on Load Management Techniques In Cloud Computing

Abstract

Cloud computing is emerging as a new standard model for enabling ubiquitous network access, computing resources, deploying, organizing, and accessing vast distributed computing applications over the network. It is an awesome platform in next stage of evolution of internet that leverages various opportunities to improve the way in which we think about and implement the practices and technology needed to secure the things that matters us the most. In cloud computing, Load balancing is one of the main challenges which are required to distribute the workload equally across all the nodes. Load balancing uses services offered by many computer network service provider corporations. The load can be CPU load, memory, capacity, delay or network load. Load balancing ensures that all the processor in the system or every node in the network distributes equal amount of work at any instant of time. This paper is a brief discussion on different load balancing techniques on the bases of different load balancing metrics.
