Abstract: As a new computing resources distribution platform, cloud technology greatly influenced society with the conception of on-demand resource usage through virtualization technology. Virtualization technology allows physical resource usage in a way that will enable multiple end-users to have similar hardware infrastructure. In the cloud, many challenges exist on the provider side due to the expectations of clients. Resource scheduling (RS) is the most significant nondeterministic polynomial time (NP) hard problem in the cloud, owing to its crucial impact on cloud performance. Previous research found that metaheuristics can dramatically increase CC performance if deployed as scheduling algorithms. Therefore, this study develops an evolutionary algorithm-based scheduling approach for makespan optimization and resource utilization (EASA-MORU) technique in the cloud environment. The EASA-MORU technique aims to maximize the makespan and effectively use the resources in the cloud infrastructure. In the EASA-MORU technique, the dung beetle optimization (DBO) technique is used for scheduling purposes. Moreover, the EASA-MORU technique balances the load properly and distributes the resources based on the demands of the cloud infrastructure. The performance evaluation of the EASA-MORU method is tested using a series of performance measures. A wide range of comprehensive comparison studies emphasized that the EASA-MORU technique performs better than other methods in different evaluation measures.
