Containers are recognized for their lightweight and virtualization efficiency, making them a vital element in modern application orchestration. In this context, the scheduler is crucial in strategically distributing containers across diverse computing nodes. This paper presents a novel two-stage container scheduling solution that addresses node imbalances and efficiently deploys containers. The proposed solution formulates the scheduling process as an optimization problem, integrating various objective functions and constraints to enhance server consolidation and minimize energy consumption. The confidentiality of migrated containers is ensured through encryption, and the associated costs are incorporated into the optimization constraints. This approach ensures security in container scheduling, considering container attributes as input features in our proposed attributes-based encryption model. By carefully selecting containers and destination nodes, this work seeks to establish balance within cloud-based clusters. This contributes to the improvement of container orchestration systems and their effectiveness in real-world scenarios. The proposed solution's efficacy is demonstrated in its ability to efficiently deploy containers in multi-data center cloud environments and seamlessly migrate them between hosts within the same data center or across different data centers. Our results show optimal consolidation with a reduction in the number of running hosts, ranging from 4% to over 18%. Additionally, the solution promotes minimal total power consumption with savings ranging from 3.5 to 16.25 megawatts, while also ensuring balanced server loads.
