Abstract
The number of users of cloud computing services is drastically increasing, thereby increasing the size of data centers across the globe. In virtue of it, the consumption of power and energy is a major concern for system designers and developers. Their goal is now to develop power and energy-efficient products at the same time maintaining the quality and cost of products and services. For managing the power and efficiency, several aspects are taken into consideration in cloud computing paradigm. Load balancing, task scheduling, task migration, resource allocation are some of the techniques, which need to be efficiently employed to minimize the energy consumption. This chapter represents the detailed survey of the existing solutions and approaches for energy-efficient load balancing algorithms used in cloud environments. The research challenges as well as future research directions are also discussed in this chapter.
