Abstract

In Cloud Computing, the virtualization of IT infrastructure enables consolidation and pooling of IT resources so they are shared over diverse applications to offset the limitation of shrinking resources and growing business needs. Cloud Computing is a way to increase the capacity or add capabilities dynamically without investing in new infrastructure, training new personnel, or licensing new software. It extends Information Technology's existing capabilities. In the last few years, cloud computing has grown from being a promising business concept to one of the fast growing segments of the IT industry. For the commercial success of this new computing paradigm, the ability to deliver guaranteed Quality of Services is crucial. Based on the Service Level Agreement, the requests are processed in the cloud centers in different modes. This chapter deals with Quality of Services and optimal management of cloud centers with different arrival modes. For this purpose, the authors consider a finite-buffer multi-server queuing system where client requests have different arrival modes. It is assumed that each arrival mode is serviced by one or more virtual machines, and different modes have equal probabilities of receiving services. Various performance measures are obtained and optimal cost policy is presented with numerical results. A genetic algorithm is employed to search optimal values of various parameters for the system.
