Systems and methods for migrating a plurality of virtual machines (VMs) from a private cluster to a public cloud include identifying the plurality of VMs currently residing in the private cluster to be migrated to the public cloud. A communication graph indicative of communications involving the plurality of VMs is determined. A migration sequence for the plurality of VMs based on the communication graph is generated. The plurality of VMs is migrated from the private cluster to the public cloud according to the migration sequence.

Systems and methods for creating and using a hybrid system include determining, by a capacity allocation system associated with a virtual computing system, capacity of a reserve portion and capacity of an allocation portion of a first site based upon a probability of failure associated with a plurality of second sites. The systems and methods also include allocating, by the capacity allocation system, the capacity of the allocation portion among the plurality of second sites for operating a portion of the plurality of second sites from the first site, determining, by the capacity allocation system, that a number of failures at the plurality of second sites exceeds a first pre-determined threshold, and dynamically adjusting, by the capacity allocation system, the capacity of the reserve portion and the capacity of the allocation portion of the first site based upon the number of the failures.

The invention describes a method of providing incentives to users via supporting mechanisms and algorithms for facilitating the move of DT traffic to off-peak hours. It proposes an efficient utilization of the network resources during peak hour under a flat-rate pricing scheme with the cooperation and blessing of the users and without adding complexity to billing.
