Systems and methods for organizing on-demand migration from private cluster to public cloud

Abstract:

Systems and methods for optimizing virtual migration includes determining a migration plan which includes migrating at least a virtual machine (VM) from a first origin node to a first candidate destination node over a network, determining a network migration cost for the migration plan, which includes determining a first relative network usage indicative of an amount of network traffic communicated over the network between the VM and each of one or more associated file storages when the VM is located on the first candidate destination node, and selecting to execute the migration plan based on the network migration cost.
