Abstract :
Today, the rapid growth in cloud computing resources usage has increased energy consumption in data centers. Green cloud computing goal is to decrease the energy consumption of data centers. In the meantime, service aggregation is a good method to reduce energy consumption in these systems. Existing aggregation methods with unnecessary migration, the unbalanced workload of hosts, and ignoring the relationship between services may reduce the quality of service and increase energy consumption. Therefore, in this study, by migrating the necessary services based on priority (including the number of children, the level and communication cost of each service), from hosts with the unbalanced workload to hosts that contain partner services, the productivity of available resources is improved and the energy consumption is decreased. Live services migration based on prioritizing and minimizing the number of migrations can also lead to response time decrease and system efficiency increase. The proposed method can lead to an 11.79% decrease in energy consumption, a 12.15% reduction in the number of service migrations, and a 1.55% increase in the number of hosts that have been shut down.
