Cloud Computing is an
emerging technology that has benefitted the individuals and organizations
greatly. It offers several advantages like pooling of resources, cost
efficiency, scalability and flexibility but can also exhibit some challenges,
one of which can be performance related challenges due to poor management of
the available resources and work load. Load balancing in cloud computing refers
to the process of distributing workloads and computing resources in the cloud
computing environment. On basis of these algorithms, client requests are
directed to the servers. In this paper, an attempt has been made to study a few
of the existing load balancing algorithms and techniques in cloud computing and
critically analyze the various performance metrics that affect the load
balancing decisions. On basis of this review, a proposal has been made to
combine load balancing algorithms with task priority to further enhance the
performance of cloud computing systems.
