Abstract

In various embodiments, a computer-implemented method includes identifying computer software applications (applications) on a mobile device. The method may also include generating migration profiles for the applications, where each application corresponds (corresponding application) to a migration profile and where the migration profile includes data files about the corresponding application. The method may also include monitoring storage space of the applications on the mobile device, where the monitoring includes identifying data files of the applications. The method may also include calculating an amount of storage space to determine whether there is a shortage of storage space for the data files. The method may also include, in response to calculating that there is a shortage of storage space, determining when the data files will be migrated. The method may also include, in response to determining when the data files will be migrated, migrating the data files to external storage.
