Abstract
The present disclosure relates to resource sharing between clouds. According to the present disclosure, a control apparatus comprises: a resource monitor, a resource decider, a secondary cloud determiner, and a deployer. The resource monitor monitors a resource usage state of a cloud in a cloud group. The resource decider, with a creation request for a new application to a primary cloud in the cloud group serving as a trigger, decides whether or not a resource for deploying all components for constructing the new application is in the primary cloud. Based on the size of available resources if a surplus component that cannot be deployed in the primary cloud is deployed in a cloud other than the primary cloud in the cloud group, the secondary cloud determiner determines a secondary cloud in which the surplus component is to be deployed. The deployer deploys the surplus component in the secondary cloud.
