Cloud computing is an internet based computing. This computing paradigm has enhanced the use of network where the capability of one node can be utilized by other node. Cloud service provides access on demand to distributive resources such as database, servers, software, infrastructure etc. in pay as you go basis. Load balancing is one of the vexing issues in distributed environment. Resources of service provider need to balance the load of client request. Load balancing is adapted in order to increase the resource consumption in Data centers that leads to enhance the overall performance of system achieving client satisfaction.
Cloud Computing is one of the most popular platforms in recent times and has many services to offer. The resources are deployed on the Cloud and are made available to cloud users over high-speed internet connectivity. Many enterprises think of migrating the data or application hosted from one Cloud to another based on the requirements. Migration from one Cloud to another Cloud requires security as it is vital for any data. This article presents a novel secure framework called ‘InterCloudFramework,’ considering well-established criteria to migrate various services across clouds with minimal supervision and interruption. Security is the primary concern to migrate the data among inter-clouds. The study incorporates the Elliptical-Curve Diffie-Hellman algorithm to encrypt the data and Merkle Hash Trees to check the integrity of the data. In addition to security during migration, the framework reduces the migration time of data or applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
