Current research of virtual machine migration strategy mainly focuses on how to reduce the delay of virtual machine migration process but does not pay much attention to the network flow problem caused by the virtual machine migration. Because of the difference caused by Infrastructure Operator's network location makes a different virtual machine migration strategy, which will result in large differences in network traffic. Infrastructure operator's network resources are scarce resources. Therefore, how to reduce the network flow of virtual machine migration is a problem to be studied. In order to reduce network traffic virtual machine migration, this paper proposes a virtual machine migration algorithm (NFBA) based on network flow balance to obtain the minimum scheduling cost. Experimental results show the migration strategy can effectively reduce the communication traffic between the virtual machine clusters within the system and reduce the burden of network and consider workload balance at the same time.

With the rapid development of Internet of Things technology, a large amount of user information needs to be uploaded to the cloud server for computing and storage. Side-channel attacks steal the private information of other virtual machines by coresident virtual machines to bring huge security threats to edge computing. Virtual machine migration technology is currently the main way to defend against side-channel attacks. VM migration can effectively prevent attackers from realizing coresident virtual machines, thereby ensuring data security and privacy protection of edge computing based on the Internet of Things. This paper considers the relevance between application services and proposes a VM migration strategy based on service correlation. This strategy defines service relevance factors to quantify the degree of service relevance, build VM migration groups through service relevance factors, and effectively reduce communication overhead between servers during migration, design and implement the VM memory migration based on the post-copy method, effectively reduce the occurrence of page fault interruption, and improve the efficiency of VM migration.

Aimed at resolving the issues of the imbalance of resources and workloads at data centers and the overhead together with the high cost of virtual machine (VM) migrations, this paper proposes a new VM migration strategy which is based on the cloud model time series workload prediction algorithm. By setting the upper and lower workload bounds for host machines, forecasting the tendency of their subsequent workloads by creating a workload time series using the cloud model, and stipulating a general VM migration criterion workload-aware migration (WAM), the proposed strategy selects a source host machine, a destination host machine, and a VM on the source host machine carrying out the task of the VM migration. Experimental results and analyses show, through comparison with other peer research works, that the proposed method can effectively avoid VM migrations caused by momentary peak workload values, significantly lower the number of VM migrations, and dynamically reach and maintain a resource and workload balance for virtual machines promoting an improved utilization of resources in the entire data center.
