Abstract :
Cloud Computing is an increasingly maturing terminology that has been researched upon widely from all front. Though many services are provided by the cloud environment, the foundation of all the services is Infrastructure as a Service, in which the major concentration is virtual machine allocation. In the cloud computing environment power consumption becomes a major issue hence the data center´s energy consumption is very remarkable. Our focus is to how can a cloud provider multiplexing their physical resources to cloud user to reduce the power consumption of the data centers. In this paper, we have explored the particle swarm optimization algorithm for the virtual machine provisioning to make the cloud data centers as power efficient. We discuss the power model for the servers, propose the power aware PSO algorithm for the virtual machine provisioning and its results.
