Cloud computing is a computing technology that is expeditiously evolving. Cloud is a type of distributed computing system that provides a scalable computational resource on demand including storage, processing power and applications as a service via Internet. Cloud computing, with the assistance of virtualization, allows for transparent data and service sharing across cloud users, as well as access to thousands of machines in a single event. Virtual machine (VM) allocation is a difficult job in virtualization that is governed as an important aspect of VM migration. This process is performed to discover the optimum way to place VMs on physical machines (PMs) since it has clear implications for resource usage, energy efficiency, and performance of several applications, among other things. Hence an efficient VM placement problem is required. This paper presents a VM allocation technique based on the elephant herd optimization scheme. The proposed method is evaluated using real-time workload traces and the empirical results show that the proposed method reduces energy consumption, and maximizes resource utilization when compared to the existing methods.
