System and method for evaluation of migration of applications to the cloud
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for the evaluation of a plurality of subject applications for migration to the cloud, the method comprising the steps of:
- executing, on at least one or more computers being used by the subject applications, a cloud migration application discovery tool, wherein the cloud migration application discovery tool is configured by way of a first program to capture application inventory data associated with said plurality of subject applications and to store the captured application inventory data in an assessment database;
analyzing, on a separate computer not used by the subject applications, a plurality of user-defined objectives for application cloud migration obtained via a user interface and filtering a set of predetermined cloud risk probability (CRISP) categories based on the user-defined objectives;
determining, via a scoring engine, on the separate computer, a respective weightage to associate with each category of the set of filtered predetermined CRISP categories for each subject application to be assessed for migration to the cloud;
generating a CRISP score for a respective cloud topology by applying the respective weightage associated with each of the set of filtered predetermined CRISP categories to the application inventory data stored in the assessment database; and
determining respective application fitment scores for each subject application associated with the application inventory data based on the generated CRISP score and historical application cloud migration data.

Abstract
The computer-implemented method for evaluation of migration of application to the cloud evaluates subject applications by executing an application discovery tool to capture application inventory data associated with the subject applications and to store the captured application inventory data. The method analyzes user-defined objectives for application cloud migration obtained via user interface and filters a set of predetermined Cloud Risk Probability (CRISP) categories based on user-defined objectives. The method determines a respective weightage to associate with each of the predetermined CRISP categories for each application. The method generates a CRISP score by applying the determined weightage of each of the set of predetermined CRISP categories in the application inventory data. The method determines respective application fitment scores for each application in the application inventory data based on the generated CRISP score and the historical application cloud migration data.
