Achieving Service Level Agreement in Cloud Environment Using Job Prioritization in Hierarchical Scheduling

Abstract

Abstract.One of the challenging issues in Cloud computing Environment is meeting the Service Level Agreement (SLA). The SLA is an agreement signed between the service provider and the service consumer for accessing the service provided by the service provider over the internet. We can investigate the negotiation strategy between the service provider and the service consumer through the third party called a Broker. In many approaches SLA is designed and trusted through the measurement of various non-functional requirements such as response time of job, CPU usage, memory usage and the storage used by the consumer. Main focus of the business process is satisfying the customer need by quick response. In our proposed approach for satisfying the service consumer (customer), parameter such as response time of deadline based job is considered. The response time of the job is affected due to improper scheduling of the job. Therefore a novel hierarchical scheduling with job prioritization is used to give more priority for deadline based jobs. This approach will satisfy the service consumer and meet the SLA by increasing the performance of the scheduling algorithm.

Load Balancing Technique with an Efficient Method

“…The article considers the QoS requirements like completing time, bandwidth, cost, a distance of dissimilar type jobs. Here this annealing method is put into action after the selection, crossover, and mutation, to progress local search capacity of GA.In the article [6] hierarchical scheduling algorithm is to be discussed to help to achieve SLA with the fast response from the service broker. In this offered algorithm, QoS metric for example response time is accomplished by computing the greater precedence tasks first by estimating task completing time and the precedence tasks are generated from the enduring tasks with thetask Scheduler.In this paper [7] authors offered a minimized method for scheduling based on the Activity Based Costing.…”

LPSO: Another Algorithm for Workflow Scheduling in the Cloud

“…Based on small position value rule, he proposed the PSO algorithm. Rajkumar and Mala (2012) proposed an hierarchical scheduling algorithm which helps satisfy different levels of service agreements with prompt response from the service providers. Xue and Wu (2012) proposed the hybrid PSO algorithm to minimize the execution cost of the workflow.…”

Efficient Optimal Algorithm of Task Scheduling in Cloud Computing Environment

“…In this paper [4] hierarchical scheduling is presented which helps in achieving Service Level Agreement with quick response from the service provider. In our proposed approach Quality of Service metric such as response time is achieved by executing the high priority jobs (deadline based jobs) first by estimating job completion time and the priority jobs are spawned from the remaining job with the help of Task Scheduler.…”
