Abstract

Cloud Computing providers offer diverse services and capabilities, which can be used by end-users to compose heterogeneous contexts of multiple cloud platforms to deploy their applications, in accordance with the best offered capabilities. However, this is an ideal scenario, since cloud platforms are being conducted in an isolated way by presenting interoperability and portability restrictions. Each provider defines its own API, non-functional requirements, QoS, add-ons, etc., and developers are often locked-in a concrete cloud environment, hampering the integration of heterogeneous provider services to achieve cross-deployment. This work presents an approach to deploy cross-cloud applications by using standardisation efforts of design, management and deployment of cloud applications. Specifically, using mechanisms specified by the TOSCA and CAMP standards, we propose a methodology to describe the topology and distribution of modules of a cloud application and to deploy the inter-connected modules over heterogeneous clouds. We present our prototype TOMAT, which supports the automatic distribution of cloud applications over multiple providers.
