ABSTRACT
With the growing amount of data processed in the virtual environment, many researchers focus their efforts on optimizing the load distribution on data centers according to various criteria. In this article, we propose optimization at the network infrastructure load of the data center. The new heuristic algorithm, based on grouping virtual machines into clusters, was compared with heuristics based on a genetic algorithm. The performed measurements indicate that clustering-based heuristics, although data-dependent, shows promising characteristics with significantly lower computational complexity. The algorithm was tested on a rigorous number of instances, proving its general usability.
