In the previous chapter, we saw how we can develop cloud applications on the AWS and OpenStack platforms. The application that you developed may use some AWS features along with some OpenStack services to work as a hybrid cloud application. In this chapter, we will look at how we can migrate virtual machines across private and public clouds.
The following topics are covered in this chapter:
- Choosing the right cloud provider
- Setting up the hybrid cloud environment
- Cloud migration
- Benefits of cloud migration
- Possible risks of cloud migration
- Cost comparison
