Abstract As the amount of data continues to grow rapidly, the variety of data produced by applications is becoming more affluent than ever. Cloud computing is the best technology evolving today to provide multi-services for the mass and variety of data. The cloud computing features are capable of processing, managing, and storing all sorts of data. Although data is stored in many high-end nodes, either in the same data centers or across many data centers in cloud, performance issues are still inevitable. The cloud replication strategy is one of best solutions to address risk of performance degradation in the cloud environment.… More >

Abstract The interest in selecting an appropriate cloud data center is exponentially increasing due to the popularity and continuous growth of the cloud computing sector. Cloud data center selection challenges are compounded by ever-increasing users’ requests and the number of data centers required to execute these requests. Cloud service broker policy defines cloud data center’s selection, which is a case of an NP-hard problem that needs a precise solution for an efficient and superior solution. Differential evolution algorithm is a metaheuristic algorithm characterized by its speed and robustness, and it is well suited for selecting an appropriate cloud data center. This… More >
