An apparatus in one embodiment comprises a processing platform that includes a plurality of processing devices each comprising a processor coupled to a memory. The processing platform is configured to implement virtual resources of at least a first cloud-based system. The processing platform further comprises a cloud service evaluation module configured to assign a value to a given cloud service provided by the first cloud-based system in terms of a virtual service unit standardized for use across multiple cloud-based systems of different types, and a workload deployment module configured to control migration of a workload associated with the cloud service from the first cloud-based system to a second cloud-based system based at least in part on the assigned value.
