Storage and application controller for mirroring and switchover of applications in a plurality of cloud locations via a plurality of configurable security protocols

A system coupled to a plurality of storage and application execution clouds, the system comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor performs operations, the operations comprising:
• transmitting, via a first communications protocol, an application to a first storage and application execution cloud;
• transmitting via a second communications protocol, a copy of the application to a second storage and application execution cloud;
• and
• in response to a compromise of the first communications protocol, stopping execution of the application and replacing the execution of the application via execution of the copy of the application.

A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code configured to perform operations, the operations comprising:

• maintaining a storage and application controller coupled to a plurality of storage and application execution clouds;
• transmitting via a first communications protocol, by the storage and application controller, an application to a first storage and application execution cloud;
• transmitting via a second communications protocol, by the storage and application controller, a copy of the application to a second storage and application execution cloud;
• and
• in response to a compromise of the first communications protocol, stopping execution of the application and replacing the execution of the application via execution of the copy of the application.
