Techniques for coordinating application migration processes. A method includes selecting at least one migration service for an application based on analysis of application information and information pertaining to multiple migration services, creating a migration plan to migrate the application to a target cloud based on the at least one selected migration service, and executing the migration plan, utilizing the at least one selected migration service, to migrate the application to the target cloud.

Coordinating application migration processes

Systems and articles of manufacture for coordinating application migration processes include selecting at least one migration service for an application based on analysis of application information and information pertaining to multiple migration services, creating a migration plan to migrate the application to a target cloud based on the at least one selected migration service, and executing the migration plan, utilizing the at least one selected migration service, to migrate the application to the target cloud.

Methods and systems for image migration. There are received, at an image reader, files of at least one image of at least one virtual machine from a first environment. Points of variability are identified within the files, with respect to preparation for functioning in a second environment. Each point of variability is associated with corresponding metadata, and each point of variability is stored with its corresponding metadata. The at least one image is reconfigured to function in the second environment, such reconfiguring comprising adjusting the points of variability via using the metadata. The reconfigured image is deployed to the second environment.

Virtual machine image migration

Techniques, systems, and articles of manufacture for automated application reconfiguration. A method includes identifying, for each of one or more configuration files in a pre-configured source virtual machine, a corresponding configuration file in a target virtual machine, identifying one or more mis-configured and/or missing points of variability in the one or more identified configuration files in the target virtual machine based on information derived from the one or more configuration files in the source virtual machine, and reconfiguring the target virtual machine by replacing each identified mis-configured point of variability with a given value based on the information derived from the one or more configuration files in the source virtual machine, and adding each identified missing point of variability at a given location with a given value and a given format based on the information derived from the one or more configuration files in the source virtual machine.

Automated application reconfiguration

Techniques, an apparatus and an article of manufacture for targeted maintenance of computing devices in a system. A method includes assessing a maintenance request to determine a class of computing devices to which the request applies, selecting a propagation mechanism applicable to the class of computing devices, generating an agent based on the propagation mechanism to carry out the maintenance request on the class of computing devices, deploying the agent on at least one computing device in the class of computing devices, and propagating the agent to additional devices in the class of computing devices.
