Information technology (IT) providers should use cloud-based services due to their flexibility, reliability, and scalability to handle the rising requirement for processing capacity. The maintenance of dependable services between cloud providers and their customers in a cloud environment, on the other hand, depends on Quality of Service (QoS) assurance. Virtual machine (VM) consolidation is nondeterministic polynomial time (NP) hard issue, and numerous heuristic techniques have been suggested to solve it. In this work, the suggested VM consolidation technique takes into account both current and future uniform distribution elephant herding optimization (UDEHO) based VM consolidation approaches for resource utilization via host overload detection (utilization prediction based potential overload detection (UP-POD)) and host underload detection (UP-PUD). A UDEHO method efficiently predicts resource use in the future. Depending on the power utilization and the number of migrations, a power-saving value is advised for identifying under-loaded hosts. Furthermore, the CloudSim toolkit is used to construct and test these techniques using the same experimental parameters. Lastly, the findings demonstrate that the suggested methodologies considerably decrease the number of VM migrations by about 0.073%, the energy usage of about 11%, and SLA violations by 6.15% while retaining QoS guarantees when compared to conventional techniques.
