Energy Efficient VM Placement Algorithms for Cloud Data Center
Cloud is the computing paradigm which provides computing resource as a service through network. The client can use computing resource in a convenient and on demand way, just like the water and the electricity we use daily. The mapping between virtual machine and physical machine is the key of the VM scheduling problem. Nowadays we advocate low carbon life. It calls for the green cloud computing solutions whether protecting the environment or saving the cost of cloud suppliers. The proposed VM placement algorithm is energy efficient, and considers the multi dimentional resource constrains, such as CPU, memory, network bandwidth, and so on. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithms not only contribute a lot to energy saving, but also try best to meet the quality of service QoS. Therefore, we make significant savings in operating cost and make full use of various resources in the cloud data center. The algorithm has promising prospect in application.
