Abstract
Cloud computing has now become extremely fast spread in the various fields of research, industry and computing in that of the recent years. Being a part of the services that are offered there are identified some new possibilities for building applications and also for providing some services to that of the end user by means of virtualization by the internet. The energy efficiency is that global challenge in today’s world and virtualization will provide a promising approach for re-dividing the hardware and also the software more than the physical servers in their multiple applications which will be able to run on a similar physical server even while having different resources. Both the Heuristic and the metaheuristic-based techniques have proven to have achieved some near-optimal solutions in a reasonable time frame for various complex problems. In this work, a shuffled frog leaping algorithm (SFLA) has been proposed for enhancing the total time of execution, the number of migration and the consumption of energy than that of the previous work that is based on the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The results show that the total simulation time (s) taken by the data center when the actual number of VMs is 100 using the SFLA is less and it achieves much better performance than the mechanism using PSO by about 17.8%.
