Abstract
The present invention is a method for initializing the transportable private cloud computing platform, and a method for migrating software applications to the transportable private cloud computing platform.
Claims4
A method of migrating software applications to a transportable private cloud computing platform, the method comprising:
- connecting the transportable private cloud computing platform to either a public or community cloud, the transportable private cloud computing platform able to exchange data with the public or community cloud but not becoming part of the public or community cloud;
- utilizing an interface device accessible on the transportable private cloud computing platform to allow a system administrator to invoke a software application migration system;
- searching a database of a plurality of servers in the public or community cloud for software applications that are available to be migrated to the transportable private cloud computing platform;
- presenting a list of software applications that are available to be migrated to the transportable private cloud computing platform;
- selecting a software application from the list of software applications that are available to be migrated to the transportable private cloud computing platform, the selected software application becoming the migrating software application;
- targeting a server of the plurality of servers which hosts the migrating software application to determine a correct virtual server configuration needed for the transportable private cloud computing platform to run the migrating software application;
- resourcing the correct virtual server configuration on the transportable private cloud computing platform to accommodate the migrating software application;
- migrating the migrating software application to the transportable private cloud computing platform;
- and
- migrating any software application data of the migrating software application to the transportable private cloud computing platform.
