1. A method for migrating a legacy application to a multi-tenant computing environment, the method comprising:

  • analyzing a set of attributes associated with the legacy application;

    determining, based on analyzing the set of attributes, if the legacy application satisfies a plurality of migration criteria for migrating the multi-tenant computing environment;

    in response to determining that the legacy application fails to satisfy the plurality of migration criteria, notifying a user that the legacy application cannot be migrated to the multi-tenant computing environment; and

    in response to determining that the legacy application satisfying the plurality of migration criteria;

    instantiating at least one virtualized computing container on a host system in a multi-tenant computing environment;

    executing an instance of the legacy application within the virtualized computing container, the legacy application being initially configured to run on premise and serve one tenant at a time, and where the virtualized computing container securely isolates the executing instance of the legacy application from other executing instances of the legacy application;

    processing, based on the executing, at least one request received from a first client by the instance of the legacy application; and

    quiescing the virtualized computing container based on at least one quiescing criterion having been satisfied by the instance of the legacy application.
