Cloud Computing is emerging as the next generation platform which would facilitate the user on pay as you use mode as per requirement. The primary aim of Cloud Computing is to provide efficient access to remote and geographically distributed resources with the help of Virtualization in Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). We need different kind of virtual machines (VM) as per the requirement and cloud provider provides these services as per the Service Level Agreement (SLA) to ensure QoS. For managing large amount of VM requests, the cloud providers require an efficient resource scheduling algorithm. In this paper, a comparative study has been made for different types of VM scheduling and provisioning algorithms and are briefly discussed and analyzed. Then we can conclude that one of these algorithms is batter for scheduling and provisioning with the perspective of cost and security of VMs.
