Abstract

Data centres have seen significant growth recently as a result of the phenomenal rise of cloud computing. These data centres typically use more energy, which significantly raises operational costs. The management of server consolidation involves moving all Virtual Machines (VMs) to idle servers. However, performance suffers as a result of migration as migration volume and time increase. The Cloud computing model generates computational cooperative of huge computing services and systems. Recently, resource sharing, task scheduling and resource management between users are familiar research areas. In this paper, Fractional Improved Whale Social Optimization Algorithm (Fractional IWSOA) is developed for load balancing in the cloud model. The developed Fractional IWSOA is newly devised by incorporating Social Optimization Algorithm (SOA) and Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm (IWOA) along with Fractional Calculus (FC). Moreover, the categorization of VM is performed based on Deep Embedded Clustering (DEC) which is categorized into two types, underloaded VMs and overloaded VMs. Additionally, the tasks in underloaded VM is assigned based on various factors. As a result, the developed Fractional IWSOA performed better than other existing techniques in terms of load, capacity, and resource usage, which were respectively 0.1160, 0.5898, and 0.7168.
