Challenges and issues in energy efficient load balancing in the cloud computing environment

Cloud computing has played an important role in Information technology. Computational and storage needs are fulfilled by cloud providers around the globe by setting up data centers that involve thousands of servers (Xu, Li, Niu, & Zhao, 2012). Different users operate many virtual machines, leading to more energy utilization and more power consumption. This issue can be resolved by the concept of load balancing; load balancing is an effective method for the system that works in a distributed method. This Load balancing concept helps in making cloud computing technology more efficient and fulfills the user needs more prominently. This paper will consider different load balancing algorithms and autoscaling to resolve load imbalance. We will compare different load balancing services of various cloud providers in the market.
