Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer-readable storage mediums described herein are directed to determining and recommending an optimal compute resource configuration for a cloud-based resource (e.g., a server, a virtual machine, etc.) for migrating a customer to the cloud. The embodiments described herein utilize a statistically robust approach that makes recommendations that are more flexible (elastic) and account for the full distribution of the amount of resource usage. Such an approach is utilized to develop a personalized rank of relevant recommendations to a customer. To determine which compute resource configuration to recommend to the customer, the customer's usage profile is matched to a set of customers that have already migrated to the cloud. The compute resource configuration that reaches the performance most similar to the performance of the configurations utilized by customers in the matched set is recommended to the user.

Project property sheets store project compiler and tool properties that are shared across multiple software projects. Property sheets enable a global repository of compiler and tool settings, so that changes in a global project property sheet will automatically propagate to the project property sheets that inherit from the global project property sheet, or from other project property sheets that inherit from the global project property sheet. Users of project property sheets are able to customize their project property sheet by defining their own compiler and tool properties. Defined compiler and tool properties override or supplement compiler and tool properties found in the global project property sheet.
