A Survey on Resource Scheduling and Allocation Policy in a Cloud Environment

V. Manimaran | S. Prabhu ^[2]

Abstract: In this paper the computability of distinctive resource scheduling algorithms and allocation policies in different dimensions are expressed. Resource Scheduling is a complicated task in cloud computing environment since there are many alternative computer systems with varying capacities. Resource allocation task is mainly scheduled for the Process which gives the available user preferences and resources. Recently, there has been a dramatic increase in the popularity of cloud computing systems that multiplex many users on the same physical infrastructure, and rent computing resources on-demand, bill on a pay-as-you-go basis. These cloud computing environments provide an illusion of infinite computing resources to cloud users so that they can decrease or increase their resource consumption rate according to the demands. Cloud computing offers more number of cloud users requesting number of cloud services simultaneously, so there should be a provision that all resources are made available to requesting user in efficient manner to satisfy their need without compromising on the performance of the cloud resources. The process of optimizing the resources being allocated over various virtual machines is the main challenge in cloud computing.
