Cloud Computing has become the most popular distributed computing environment because it does not require any user level management and controlling on the low-level implementation of the system. However, efficient resource provisioning is a key challenge for cloud computing and resolving such kind of problem can reduce under or over utilization of resources, increase user satisfaction by serving more users during peak hours, reduce implementation cost for providers and service cost for users. Existing works on cloud computing focuses to accurate estimation of the capacity needs, static or dynamic VM (Virtual Machine) creation and scheduling. But significant amount of time is required to create and destroy VMs which could be used to serve more user requests. In this paper, an adaptive QoS (Quality of Service) aware VM provisioning mechanism is developed that ensures efficient utilization of the system …
