An Energy Efficient VM Placement Technique for Cloud Datacenters

The use of cloud computing technology has been an important aspect in many applications in recent time. The cloud provides scalable and on-demand services to the customers and keeps the customer information and data secure. The overall performance of the cloud depends on the reliability, availability and standard of the resources. Even though the cloud provides many usefulness it faces many issues and challenges that needs to be handled. One such challenge is the efficient resource allocation to minimize the overall energy consumption. In this paper an efficient VM placement and allocation strategy is proposed for cloud datacenters to reduce the cost incurred for using the resources within the cloud datacenters. The proposed technique is implemented in the CloudSim toolkit where a simulation is done using sample cloud datacenters. The experimented results are noted down.
