Abstract
Dynamic consolidation of virtual machines (VMs) is an effective way to improve resource utilization and power efficiency in cloud computing. For example, determining when it is best to relocate VMs from an overloaded host is one aspect of dynamic VM consolidation that directly influences the resource utilization and Quality of Service (QoS) offered by the system. This paper presents a new proposal with an Interval-valued Fuzzy Logic approach to address the uncertainties and inaccuracies in determining resource usage, aiming at energy savings with minimal performance degradation. The results obtained in a simulated cloud computing environment showed improvements for energy efficiency of 2.3% with Inter Quartile Range (IQR). With regard to Service Level Agreement (SLA), results of 10.1% were achieved with Threshold Policy (THR), and finally, IQR obtained 7.9% better results considering the reduction in the number of VM migrations.
