Abstract

Cloud is based on the underlying technology of virtualization. Here, the physical servers are divided into multiple virtual servers. Through the technology of virtualization, each virtual server contains virtual machines. Live virtual machine migration is to have migration time and inactive time with minimal duration. Various machine-learning approaches have been investigated and research gaps were identified to enhance the security features during the migration process. Moreover, a secure virtual machine live migration is proposed using Advanced Metric Encryption (AME). Considering the duration of live migration in data centers as well as ensuring the security aspects, the proposed model has been tested and evaluated.

Keywords: Advanced Metric Encryption (AME), virtual machine, live migration, security, IP-Sec Tunneling.
