Live migration is used in the case of proactive maintenance, power management, load balancing, energy saving. This paper present and design the novel approach to reduce the total migration time and down time during live virtual machine migration by compressed log files transfer. For providing the effective and fast migration of the virtual machine log compression method uses Huffman encoding and to make the migration effective we use the parallel multithreading technique. This method also consumes the less bandwidth during the time of migration and provide more security to the data. %K virtual machine %K live migration %K total migration time %K down time %U http://www.ijettjournal.org/volume-4/issue-3/IJETT-V4I3P229.pdf
