Abstract:

Cloud computing environments require efficient load-balancing mechanisms to prevent bottlenecks, maximize resource utilization, and ensure optimal system performance. While Hybrid Load Balancing Algorithms (HLBA) have superior adaptability compared to existing methods, the effectiveness of these algorithms depends on the fine-tuning of parameters such as load thresholds, balancing approaches, and decision-making models. This study focuses on HLBA optimization by analyzing and adjusting these parameters within the Python-based cloud simulation. The proposed fine-tuning process minimizes response time, increases throughput, and improves server utilization by involving adaptive threshold adjustments, decision-tree optimization, and heuristic-driven enhancements. The results are shown below with different simulated cloud workload environments, assessing the control of parameter tuning on system performance. The comparative analysis with traditional and baseline HLBA implementations confirms that parameter-optimized HLBA achieves a 20–30% development in efficiency. The outcomes provide valuable insights into dynamic parameter tuning for real-time cloud load balancing, paving the way for future AI-driven autonomous load-balancing frameworks.
