<jats:p>Cloud computing provides unprecedented advantages of using computing resources with very less efforts and cost. The energy utilization in cloud data centers has forced the cloud service providers to raise the expense of using its services and has increased the carbon footprints in the environment. Many static bin-packing algorithms exist which can reduce energy by some percentage, but with new era of digitization, advanced and dynamic techniques are required which can serve heterogeneous users and random users’ requests. Thus, in this paper, two new dynamic best-fit decreasing-based bin-packing algorithms are proposed wherein the first technique is for service providers and focuses on increasing server utilization and the second approach acts as a switcher to harness best results among all algorithms. Both techniques deliberately achieve high performance in terms of total energy consumption, resource utilization, and makespan along with serving continuous and varying requests from customers. The simulations are performed using Java. The results exhibited that DEE-BFD can escalate resource utilization by 96% and EM switcher can reduce total energy consumption by 49% and reduce makespan by 56%.</jats:p>
