Cloud architecture interpretation and recommendation engine for multi-cloud implementation

A system comprising:

• a memory comprising computer readable instructions;
• and
• a processing device for executing the computer readable instructions, the computer readable instructions controlling the processing device to perform operations for creating a cloud infrastructure comprising:
• receiving declarative code and source code for implementation on the cloud infrastructure, wherein the source code is part of a code base;
• receiving user-defined requirements;
• generating a list of instantiations by reading the source code and the declarative code;
• selecting an instantiation from the list of instantiations;
• collecting instantiation information relating to at least one of billing, accounts, environment variables and specifications of the instantiation;
• retrieving cloud provider capabilities for a plurality of cloud providers, wherein the cloud provider capabilities include one or more of available processing resources, available memory resources, available data storage resources, available bandwidth resources, geographical location information of resources and service costs;
• identifying, based on the code base, the declarative code, the instantiation information, the user-defined requirements and cloud provider capabilities, multiple suitable cloud architectures from the plurality of cloud providers to operate the source code and the declarative code on the cloud infrastructure;
• modeling different combinations of component implementation options based on the user-defined requirements and a user-defined rating preference, wherein the user-defined rating preference is weighted based on importance to the user;
• prior to presenting the multiple suitable cloud architectures, ranking the multiple suitable cloud architectures as a ranked list of the multiple suitable cloud architectures;
• presenting, to a user, the multiple suitable cloud architectures, wherein presenting the multiple suitable cloud architectures comprises presenting the ranked list of the multiple suitable cloud architectures;
• implementing a selected cloud architecture for the cloud infrastructure based on a selection by the user;
• and
• deploying the instantiation on the selected cloud architecture.

A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processing device to cause the processing device to perform operations creating a cloud infrastructure comprising:

• receiving declarative code and source code for implementation on the cloud infrastructure, wherein the source code is part of a code base;
• receiving user-defined requirements;
• generating a list of instantiations by reading the source code and the declarative code;
• selecting an instantiation from the list of instantiations;
• collecting instantiation information relating to at least one of billing, accounts, environment variables and specifications of the instantiation;
• retrieving cloud provider capabilities for a plurality of cloud providers, wherein the cloud provider capabilities include one or more of available processing resources, available memory resources, available data storage resources, available bandwidth resources, geographical location information of resources and service costs;
• identifying, based on the code base, the declarative code, the instantiation information, the user-defined requirements and cloud provider capabilities, multiple suitable cloud architectures from the plurality of cloud providers to operate the source code and the declarative code on the cloud infrastructure;
• modeling different combinations of component implementation options based on the user-defined requirements and a user-defined rating preference, wherein the user-defined rating preference is weighted based on importance to the user;
• prior to presenting the multiple suitable cloud architectures, ranking the multiple suitable cloud architectures as a ranked list of the multiple suitable cloud architectures;
• presenting, to a user, the multiple suitable cloud architectures, wherein presenting the multiple suitable cloud architectures comprises presenting the ranked list of the multiple suitable cloud architectures;
