Performance Analysis of Load Balancing Techniques in Cloud Computing Environment

Abstract

This paper investigates and evaluates different load-balancing techniques within cloud computing, focusing on how these approaches impact efficiency, response time, and scalability across virtualized environments. Given the rapid growth of cloud services, the efficient allocation of resources has become a primary concern in cloud systems. This explores various load-balancing algorithms, including Round Robin, Least Connection, and Resource-Aware methods, examining their applications, limitations, and deployment within major cloud platforms like Azure.
