Abstrakt: The dynamic nature of the cloud environment increases the complexity of managing its resources and the distribution of user workload between the available containers in the data center. However, the workload must be balanced to improve the cloud system's overall performance. Generally, most of the existing load balancing techniques suffer from performance degradation due to the communication overheads among the containers. Moreover, less attention is given to stabilize the load in a multi-cloud environment. Therefore, to overcome this problem, there is a need to develop an elastic load balancing method to improve the performance of cloud systems. This paper proposed an autonomic CSO-ILB load balancer to ensure the elasticity of the cloud system and balance the user workload among the available containers in a multi-cloud environment. The concept of multi-loop has been utilized in our approach to enabling efficient self-management before load balancing. The tasks are scheduled to the containers using an extended scheduling algorithm called Deadline-Constrained Make-span Minimization for Multi-Task Scheduling (DCMM-MTS). Based on the task scheduling, the load in each container is computed and then balanced using the proposed load balancer algorithm CSO-ILB. The proposed approach is evaluated in the Container CloudSim platform, and the performance is compared with the existing meta-heuristic algorithms such as Ant Colony Optimization, Bee Colony Optimization, Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm and Cat Swarm Optimization (CSO). The simulations proved that the proposed approach outperformed the other approaches in terms of reliability, CPU utilization, make-span, energy utilization, response time, execution cost, idle time, and task migration.
