Abstract

A system and method of evaluating readiness of applications for the cloud. In one embodiment, the method the step of planning a scope of work by assessing which software applications are under consideration for migration to the cloud. The software applications under consideration are assessed for migration to the cloud to determine technical objectives The method includes the step of analyzing the software applications under consideration for migration to the cloud to determine a score representative to propensity of respective applications to a public, private or hybrid cloud architecture. A migration strategy is defined based on the accessing and analyzing steps. This allows a recommendation of readiness of the applications under consideration for migration to the cloud.
