Abstract

Cloud computing fastens its position in the industry as a means to deliver computational
resources dynamically, offering advantages in performance and cost over traditional,
inflexible computing resources. To offer a structured and well evaluatable approach of
migrating existing software systems to the cloud, the CloudMIG approach introduced a
scale for a given software system’s suitability and aligment with a given cloud environment. CloudMIG Xpress was created as a toolsuite to assist this approach. In CloudMIG Xpress, cloud profiles are created for cloud products provided by major cloud providers, structuring their constraints as well as information about pricing, to aid automatic evaluation of their suitability for a software system. This work aims at extending CloudMIG XPress by a centralized repository through which these cloud profiles are distributed and evaluating the Eclipse Provisioning Platform (P2) as a means to distribution.
