“…We further differentiate this work from the internal cluster migration including process/memory and suspend/resume migration as the works presented in (21). We aim to the problem of inter-cloud VM cluster migration and on the way that VM clusters could be moved from one place to another and re-instantiated without loosing their connections.…”

Modern cloud computing applications developed from different interoperable services that are interfacing with each other in a loose coupling approach. This work proposes the concept of the Virtual Machine (VM) cluster migration, meaning that services could be migrated to various clouds based on different constraints such as computational resources and better economical offerings. Since cloud services are instantiated as VMs, an application can be seen as a cluster of VMs that integrate its functionality. We focus on the VM cluster migration by exploring a more sophisticated method with regards to VM network configurations. In particular, networks are hard to managed because their internal setup is changed after a migration, and this is related with the configuration parameters during the re-instantiation to the new cloud platform. To address such issue, we introduce a Software Defined Networking (SDN) service that breaks the problem of network configuration into tractable pieces and involves virtual bridges instead of references to static endpoints. The architecture is modular, it is based on the SDN OpenFlow protocol and allows VMs to be paired in cluster groups that communicate with each other independently of the cloud platform that are deployed. The experimental analysis demonstrates migrations of VM clusters and provides a detailed discussion of service performance for different cases.

Resumo: A computação em nuvem propõe um modelo no qual o usuário tem a ideia de recursos ilimitados, que podem ser reservados dinamicamente, pagando somente o que for consumido. Esse modelo de tarifação é conhecido como pay-as-you-go. Estes e outros fatores, levaram a uma ampla adoção dos serviços oferecidos pelas nuvens computacionais por parte dos usuários. Porém, ao migrarem aplicações para a nuvem, os usuários se deparam com uma quantidade expressiva de provedores, recursos, corretores e serviços oferecidos. Através da análise de material coletado em uma pesquisa referenciada, este trabalho propõe uma taxonomia para a classificação de atores relacionados com a corretagem de nuvens de acordo com as suas principais características. Nas referências são citados diversos recursos e tipos de serviços, porém este trabalho mantém o foco na migração de infraestruturas virtuais entre provedores de Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS). Palavras-chave: Corretagem, IaaS, Nuvens, Corretores, Migração, InteroperabilidadeAbstract: Cloud computing offers a model in which the user has the idea of unlimited resources. Allied with this idea, cloud computing also provides another advantage that allows the user to pay only what is consumed, this model is also known as pay as you go. These and other factors led to a broad adoption of services offered by cloud computing. However, when the users migrates their applications to the cloud, they faced several possibilities of providers, resources, brokers, and services. Through a analysis of articles and books relevant to the subject, we propose a taxonomy in order to classify cloud brokers according to their main features. The references mention several features, but this work keeps focused in migration of virtual infrastructures between Infrastructureas-a-Service (IaaS) providers.
