A Survey on Load Balancing Challenges In Cloud Environment

Abstract

Cloud computing helps to share data and provide many resources to users. Users pay only for those resources as much they used. Cloud computing stores the data and distributed resources in the open environment. The amount of data storage increases quickly in open environment. Load balancing is a main challenge in cloud environment. Load balancing is important role to distribute the dynamic workload across multiple nodes to ensure that no single node is overloaded. cloud computing is a structured model that defines computing services, in which data as well as resources are retrieved from cloud service provider via internet through some well formed web-based tool and application. Cloud Computing is nothing but a collection of computing resources and services pooled together and is provide to the users on pay-as-needed basis. The aim of this paper is to discuss the concept of load balancing in cloud computing and how it improves and maintain the performance of cloud systems and also contains comparison of various existing static load balancers as well as conventional dynamic load balancer also.
