Mishra group and group researched load balancing in the cloud. Load balancing involves detecting overloaded and underloaded nodes and balancing among them. Mishra and the group proposed various load balancing approaches in the cloud. The researchers performed simulations in CloudSim. I think the author’s method was sound; Mishra and group analyzed balancing algorithms using Max-Min, MET, MCT through simulations that were generated in the databases. The authors analyzed various balancing strategies in different forms, that is homogenous and heterogeneous cloud computing environments. What is missing is that the authors did not include how the proposed algorithms can work in the real-world cloud.

The article fills a literature gap in that the study provides more insights on how to solve cloud problems. These problems include overloaded and underloaded systems that result in machine failure. The authors provide strategies that can be conducted to ensure load balancing. The author would provide load balancing strategies for my study.

Kumar &Rana conducted a study to evaluate various dynamics of load balancing techniques in cloud computing. According to the authors, load balancing is a technique that distributes workload to all nodes. Static and dynamic load balancing are examples of load balancing techniques. Kumar &Rana performed a survey on different dynamics of the cloud environment while comparing based on different load balancing metrics. The authors compared algorithms of different metrics to find the scope of improving fault tolerance, resource utilization, minimizing response time, and migration time.

The article fills a gap in the literature as the authors compared the algorithms based on defined metrics. These are overhead, throughput, fault tolerance, response time, scalability, and resource allocation. The authors did not provide ways to design a new dynamic balancing using fault tolerance for better resource utilization. The article is useful for my study as it provides information on some of the load balancing techniques in cloud computing.

https://doi.org/10.1186/s13677-019-0146-7

The authors provide detailed information on load balancing techniques, disadvantages of the existing techniques and insights, and strategies of developing efficient load balancing algorithms. The paper also analyzes the causes of load unbalancing problems in the cloud. The author’s method was sound since the paper analyzes a systematic overview of the research. Through the systematic review, the authors found that majority of research conducted did not provide algorithmic complexity. The authors suggest that algorithmic complexity should be used as a benchmark to develop new balancing approaches. The authors fail to provide strategies to counter real-time load balancing problems.

The articles fill a gap in the literature as it provides information on the challenges that current research on load balancing has. The authors argue that algorithm complexity has not been given much attention. The article is crucial for my study as it will provide knowledge on how I can approach the future algorithmic load balancing techniques.

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.procs.2017.12.092

According to the authors, research has proposed various load balancing techniques, but none provides elasticity. The authors propose a technique where a user submits task request T1,…T2…T3….Tn in the form of software or hardware. Simultaneously, considering the (QoS) parameters such as availability, elasticity, deadline, and priority using Turing tests. Then the upcoming request is checked if it is from a legitimate user. A controller node is also used where a node provides interaction between IaaS and Saas.

The authors propose a load balancing algorithm that will objectively reduce make span time and task rejection ration in the cloud environment. The proposed algorithm has a scheduler, workload analyzer, ELB, cloud deprovisioning, and resource provisioning. The authors found that their proposed algorithm reduces the make span time and task rejection ration. Besides, the algorithm has a proposed scale compared to Min-Min, FCFS, and SJF.

The authors have added more knowledge to the existing literature gap by suggesting a more elastic and flexible cloud algorithm. The article provides information on the role of load balancing in future cloud computing. It also provides insights on elastic and flexible algorithms that will be used in the future.

Dobale and Sonar present a Load Balance Search Algorithm (LBSA), an algorithm that solves cloud computing problems. Instead of migrating files using different chunks to varied servers, the LBSA algorithm will deal with the imbalance problem. In this algorithm, the load migrates one user to one whole file to the nearest node. According to the authors, the proposed algorithm will eliminate previous time-consuming procedures. The authors suggest that this approach will reduce demand movement costs, maximize the throughput, and minimize the response time.

https://doi.org/10.5121/ijcsit.2015.7201

Liang and Yang proposed a global server framework of Web sites in the cloud using two load balancing models. The framework is designed to adapt to an open-source load balancing system. The framework also enables a network provider to deploy a balancer to various data centers in the cloud. The users should have more load balancers to increase their availability. The authors suggest that the proposed framework could save IT costs and is easily deployed.

The proposed framework has a Load Balancer Selector (LBS) and a software-based load balancer. The software-based load balancer is adapted to a Linux Virtual Server (LVS). LVS provides services such as IP encapsulation, address translation, and direct rooting. LVS also plays as the virtual machine in the cloud for specific Web cluster. The authors did not provide sufficient information on how to improve performances for large users. Besides, they did not perform the suggested framework in a hybrid environment.

The authors address a literature gap by proposing how two load balancing techniques can work in the cloud. The article is crucial to my study as it will provide more insights into load balancing in the future cloud.
