Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure relate to managing migration of an application. The managing migration of an application includes establishing a source dataset. The source dataset includes a set of source features. The source features relate to a source. The source includes the application. A determination of a first set of migration plans is made. The determination is made with an evaluation. The evaluation is made using the source dataset and a set of legacy features. The evaluation is performed with a cost measure. The application is migrated from the source to the target. The migration is based on the determined first set of migration plans.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method for managing migration of an application, the method comprising:
- establishing a source dataset having a set of source features of a source which includes the application;
- determining for the application, by an evaluation of the source dataset and a set of legacy features, a first set of migration plans using a cost measure;
- and
- migrating, based on the first set of migration plans, the application from the source to a target.
A system for managing migration of an application, the system comprising:
- a remote device;
- and
- a host device, at least one device of the remote device and the host device including a managing module, the managing module comprising:
- an establishing module to establish a source dataset having a set of source features of a source which includes the application;
- a determining module to determine for the application, by an evaluation of the source dataset and a set of legacy features, a first set of migration plans;
- and
- a migrating module to migrate, based on the first set of migration plans,
- the application from the source to a target.
A computer program product for managing migration of an application, the computer program product disposed upon a computer readable storage medium, the computer program product comprising computer program instructions that, when executed by a computer processor of a computer, cause the computer to carry out the steps of:
- establish a source dataset having a set of source features of a source which includes the application;
- determine for the application, by an evaluation of the source dataset and a set of legacy features, a first set of migration plans using a cost measure;
- and
- migrate, based on the first set of migration plans, the application from the source to a target.
