Load balancing is an important aspect of cloud computing environment. Efficient load balancing scheme ensures efficient resource utilization by provisioning of resources to cloud user’s on-demand basis in pay-as-you-say-manner. Load balancing may even support prioritizing users by applying appropriate scheduling criteria. This study presents various load balancing schemes in different cloud environment based on requirements specified in Service Level Agreement (SLA).} }
