A Survey on Auto Live Migration Mechanism in Cloud Environment
Cloud Computing has recently emerged as a compelling paradigm for delivering computing services to users as utilities in a pay-as-you-go manner over the internet. Virtualization is a key concept in cloud computing. Virtualization technology refers to the creation of a virtual machine that acts like a real hardware with an operating system. Live migration is the task of moving a virtual machine from one physical hardware environment to another without disconnecting the client. Its facilities for efficient utilization of resources (CPU, memory, Storage) to manage load imbalance problem and also useful for reduction in energy consumption and fault management. For live migration of the virtual machine cloud provider needs to monitor the resources of all hosts continuously. So there are techniques for automation of this live migration when required. This method is called auto live migration techniques. This paper presents a detailed survey on Auto Live Migration of Virtual machines (VM) in cloud computing
Orchestrating Service Migration for Low Power MEC-Enabled IoT Devices
Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) is a key enabling technology for Fifth
Generation (5G) mobile networks. MEC facilitates distributed cloud computing
capabilities and information technology service environment for applications
and services at the edges of mobile networks. This architectural modification
serves to reduce congestion, latency, and improve the performance of such edge
colocated applications and devices. In this paper, we demonstrate how reactive
service migration can be orchestrated for low-power MEC-enabled Internet of
Things (IoT) devices. Here, we use open-source Kubernetes as container
orchestration system. Our demo is based on traditional client-server system
from user equipment (UE) over Long Term Evolution (LTE) to the MEC server. As
the use case scenario, we post-process live video received over web real-time
communication (WebRTC). Next, we integrate orchestration by Kubernetes with S1
handovers, demonstrating MEC-based software defined network (SDN). Now, edge
applications may reactively follow the UE within the radio access network
(RAN), expediting low-latency. The collected data is used to analyze the
benefits of the low-power MEC-enabled IoT device scheme, in which end-to-end
(E2E) latency and power requirements of the UE are improved. We further discuss
the challenges of implementing such schemes and future research directions
therein

Dynamic virtual private network provisioning from multiple cloud infrastructure service providers
The Cloud infrastructure service providers currently provision basic virtualized computing resources as on demand and dynamic services but there is no common framework in existence that allows the seamless provisioning of even these basic services across multiple cloud service providers, although this is not due to any inherent incompatibility or proprietary nature of the foundation technologies on which these cloud platforms are built. We present a solution idea which aims to provide a dynamic and service oriented provisioning of secure virtual private networks on top of multiple cloud infrastructure service providers. This solution leverages the benefits of peer to peer overlay networks, i.e., the flexibility and scalability to handle the churn of nodes joining and leaving the VPNs and can adapt the topology of the VPN as per the requirements of the applications utilizing its intercloud secure communication framework
A Self-adaptive Agent-based System for Cloud Platforms
Cloud computing is a model for enabling on-demand network access to a shared
pool of computing resources, that can be dynamically allocated and released
with minimal effort. However, this task can be complex in highly dynamic
environments with various resources to allocate for an increasing number of
different users requirements. In this work, we propose a Cloud architecture
based on a multi-agent system exhibiting a self-adaptive behavior to address
the dynamic resource allocation. This self-adaptive system follows a MAPE-K
approach to reason and act, according to QoS, Cloud service information, and
propagated run-time information, to detect QoS degradation and make better
resource allocation decisions. We validate our proposed Cloud architecture by
simulation. Results show that it can properly allocate resources to reduce
energy consumption, while satisfying the users demanded QoS
