Novel distributed load balancing algorithms in cloud storage

作者：

Highlights：

• This paper explored the existing issue with load balancing in cloud storage.

• Two different load balancing algorithms named CDLB and DDLB are proposed in this work.

• The proposed algorithms exploit the different parameters of storage server.

• The proposed algorithms consider service rate, queue length and service time as main parameters of the server.

• This work shows the overall performance of cloud storage in terms of server utilization and reducing the response time.
