Data center selection through service broker policy in cloud computing environment

The concept of cloud computing is well known for the sharing of resources, data and information for which it deals with several services like servers, storage, applications. Service broker based on service broker policies handles the routing between data center and user base. The cloud service providers are responsible for providing different application ad infrastructure services to the end user through data centers. Due to the distribution of data centers in several geographical locations, there may be the possibility of overload and in result in unavailability to end users. The study aims to increase the efficiency of the system by choosing proper selection of policy. Service broker policy not only reduces overloading of data center but also enables to choose proper data center. The study discusses the different parameters like response time, processing time and cost that helps to reduce associated overhead and increase performance by selecting proper data center based on service broker policies. This paper also presents the simulation of service broker policy algorithms for the different parameter's like response time, processing time, cost of assigned virtual machine and data transfer cost. © 2021
