Cloud computing though a popular technology, is accompanied by various challenges and energy-efficiency is one of them. Energy efficiency can be achieved in various cloud computing infrastructure domains. Cloud computing infrastructure comprises of hardware and software domains. Cloud Management System (CMS) comes under software domain. Since virtualization is the backbone of cloud computing- Virtual Machine (VM) placement, VM scheduling, VM reconfiguration, VM migration, VM consolidation can be studied to achieve energy-efficiency. These methods come under the CMS domain. In this work the problem of VM placement is considered. VM placement algorithms are classified based on multiple criteria A qualitative study is done which compares different energy-efficient VM placement algorithms.
