SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ASSESSING HYBRIDIZATION OF CLOUD COMPUTING SERVICES BASED ON DATA MINING OF HISTORICAL DECISIONS
First Claim
1. A system for aiding an enterprise in deciding to execute an application in a private cloud or in a hybrid private cloud and public cloud, the system comprising:
- one or more processors;
one or more data-storage devices; and
a routine stored in the data-storage devices that when executed using the one or more processorsreceives a set of quantitative parameters associated with running the application using computational services provided by a public cloud service provider;
receives a set of organizational parameters associated with the enterprise;
normalizes the quantitative and organizational parameters;
inputs the normalized quantitative and organization parameters to a decision model that generates a recommendation that indicates exclusive use of a private cloud or a hybrid private cloud and public cloud to execute the application; and
stores the recommendation on the one or more data-storage devices.

Abstract
Computational methods and systems that aid an enterprise in deciding whether to execute an application entirely within a private cloud or a hybrid combination of the private cloud and public cloud services offered by a public cloud service provider are described. The methods and system receive a set of quantitative parameters associated with running an application using computational services provided by a public cloud service provider and a set of organizational parameters associated with an enterprise. The quantitative and organizational parameters are normalized and input to a decision model that generates a recommendation that indicates exclusive use of a private cloud or a hybrid private cloud and public cloud to execute the application.

7. A method stored in one or more data-storage devices and executed using one or more processors that aids an enterprise in deciding to execute an application in a private cloud or in a hybrid private cloud and public cloud, the method comprising:
-
receiving a set of quantitative parameters associated with running an application using computational services provided by a public cloud service provider; receiving a set of organizational parameters associated with an enterprise; normalizing the quantitative and organizational parameters; inputting the normalized quantitative and organization parameters to a decision model that generates a recommendation that indicates exclusive use of a private cloud or a hybrid private cloud and public cloud to execute the application; and storing the recommendation on the one or more data-storage devices. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 16)
