Million numbers of these users tries to access the data in different type of applications like online shopping etc., which tends to increase the load on a single server. Increase of load on a server results in reduction of throughput and it leads to a strong need of developing and maintaining an efficient system with an appropriate load balancing algorithm that will be used to retrieve the important information with a reasonable response time. The main objective of our study is to propose a load balancing algorithm that can balance the requests coming from different users residing in different locations to retrieve the data from a distributed database environment using some virtualization techniques.
