Abstract. Many organizations migrate their on-premise software systems to the cloud. However, current coarse-grained cloud migration solutions have made a transparent migration of on-premise applications to the cloud a difficult, sometimes trial-and-error based endeavor. This paper suggests a catalogue of fine-grained service-based cloud architecture migration patterns that target multi-cloud settings and are specified with architectural notations. The proposed migration patterns are based on empirical evidence from a number of migration projects, best practices for cloud architectures and a systematic literature review of existing research. The pattern catalogue allows an organization to (1) select appropriate architecture migration patterns based on their objectives, (2) compose them to define a migration plan, and (3) extend them based on the identification of new patterns in new contexts.
The paper REF presents a catalogue of service-based cloud migration patterns that are focused on the ability to run the applications across multiple clouds.
