Abstract

Virtual machine (VM) migration in the cloud computing (CC) environment is an important issue to solve many problems, such as: Load Balancing, accomplished by migrating VMs out of overloaded/overheated servers, and Server Consolidation, where servers can be selectively brought down for maintenance after migrating their workload to other servers. In this paper, we propose an efficient VM migration algorithm based on minimization of migrations in CC to improve efficiency and response the requirements for user and restrict of service level agreements (SLA) violation. Experimental results showed the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm compared with existing algorithm.
