AN OPTIMUM SERVICE BROKER POLICY FOR SELECTING DATA CENTER IN CLOUDANALYST

Abstract

Routing request to proper destination is a key consideration in distribution networks. Service broker policy is the essential logic, which functions with this intention. Choosing the right data center is the promising task for service broker policy. The simulation tool CloudAnalyst contains few service broker policies with which request is routed to the appropriate destination data center. Random selection of data center in these service broker policies deteriorates the efficiency of response time parameter. In this paper, a new service broker policy is proposed which optimally routes the request to a data center and overcomes the issues raised by random selection of a data center.
