Abstract: Cloud computing is an on-demand service resource that includes applications to data centres on a pay-per-use basis. While allocating resources, the node failure causes the cloud service failures. This reduces the quality of service along with 'extra' energy consumption. This survey makes an evaluation on 65 papers regarding energy aware resource allocation (RA) techniques in cloud. The performances and associated highest attainments of each contribution are described in this review. In addition, the tools used for implementing the RA techniques in each paper along with type of workloads were considered. We examine a number of current or developed energy-aware RA approaches for cloud settings in this study. We also provide a thorough analysis of the various energy-conscious RA and selection strategies for cloud-based virtual machines. Lastly, the clear sketch of issues and weakness are determined that may be supportive to resolve the existing problems in this aspect.

Keywords: cloud computing; resource allocation; energy utilisation; quality of service; workloads.
