Abstract
Workload consolidation is an approach to enhance the server utilization by grouping the VMs that are executing workflow tasks over multiple servers based on their server utilization. The primary objective is to optimally allocate the number of servers for executing the workflows which in turn minimize the cost and energy of data centers. This chapter consolidates the cost- and energy-aware workload consolidation approaches along with the tools and methodologies used in modern cloud data centers.
