Cloud computing technology is bringing attractive changes in IT field. One of the distributed computing paradigm which mainly focuses on providing everything as a service to the consumer is cloud computing and it provides computational or storage resources and database to users. In the cloud computing environment, load balancing has an important impact on the performance. Effective implementation of load balancing can make cloud computing more effective and it also improves user satisfaction. A better load balance model can be implemented for the large cloud which uses the cloud partitioning concept. Switch mechanism can also be used to choose different strategies for different situations. The algorithm applies the token generation algorithm to improve the effect of load balancing strategy in the public cloud environment.

Keywords: Cloud partitioning, Load balancing model, Switch mechanism.
