Abstract

Techniques for automated and controlled cloud migration or bursting are provided. A schema for a first cloud in a first cloud processing environment is used to evaluate metrics against thresholds defined in the schema. When a threshold is reached other metrics for other clouds in second cloud processing environments are evaluated and a second cloud processing environment is selected. Next, a second cloud is cloned in the selected second cloud processing environment for the first cloud and traffic associated with the first cloud is automatically migrated to the cloned second cloud.
