Extensive Survey of Simulators available in Distributed Environment

Cloud computing is emerging technology in the present scenario, which is gaining more popularity day to day. As its user base is increasing at rapid speed it leads to more complexities to fulfill the demands of users. Cloud computing has to face performance, security, load balancing, energy efficiency and cost management related problem to maintain its sustainability in the present competitive environment. Cloud Simulators plays the vital role in the analysis of cloud related problems with lowest cost with the help of designing the virtual environment without using the real hardware and software resources due to its high cost. In the present era, there are various type of Cloud simulators has been proposed by various eminent authors, In this paper, an extensive survey has been performed to find the suitable platform for the further research work.
