An Efficient Fault-Tolerant Algorithm for Distributed Cloud Services

Survey of Fault Tolerance Policy for Load Balancing Scheme in Distributed Computing

“…DDFTP [15] is a dual-direction downloading algorithm from FTP servers and its modified version in [16], introducing efficient fault-tolerance and load balancing with minimal communication and coordination overhead while executing services in parallel over shared and dynamic heterogeneous distributed cloud infrastructure. The main idea of algorithm is to splits the file into two half and task is being executed on two servers, such that each server starts processing the task in an opposite direction from the other, one server starts processing from the beginning in an incremental order while other starts the file downloading from the last block in decrement order.…”

“…possible time, giving the performance and properties of both servers [16]. Moreover, attributes such as network load, node load, network speed are automatically taken into consideration, while no run-time monitoring of the nodes is required, yet it maintain good load balancing among all participating server.…”
