Migrating applications to updated environments
A migration system for migrating an application between environments is provided. The migration system includes analyzes a profile of the application on a first environment based on a conformance check. The migration system reconstructs application dependencies with respect to a second environment, based on the application profile analysis, to produce an updated environment with reconstructed application dependencies. The migration system migrates the application from the first environment to the updated environment with the reconstructed application dependencies.
1. A system for migrating an application between environments, the system comprising:
a processor; and
a memory, operably coupled to the processor, the memory storing program instructions thereon, the program instructions executable by the processor to cause the system to:
analyze a profile of an application on a first environment;
reconstruct application dependencies utilizing a conformance check to implement security policies of the system, the application dependencies are reconstructed with respect to a service instance of a second environment based on the application profile analysis to produce an updated environment, the system generating mapped runtime environment variables and services as the service instance based on analyzing the application profile, the updated environment serves and binds information-sensitive end-user data during migrating of the application, the updated environment comprising the reconstructed application dependencies, the conformance check being an automatic check of conformance requirements of migration prerequisites against the application profile; and
migrate the application from the first environment to the updated environment with the reconstructed application dependencies.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first environment comprises a Platform as a Service environment, and wherein the second environment comprises a target environment.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the program instructions are further executable by the processor to cause the system to provide an option for automatic fix for each item of the application profile that is found in nonconformance during the conformance check.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the application dependencies comprise environment variables and service bindings on the updated environment.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein environment variables and service bindings of the application are updated with auto mapping based on generating conformance service access endpoint information in the second environment.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system is provided as a service in a cloud environment.
7. A computer program product for migrating an application between environments, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to:
analyze a profile of an application on a first environment;
reconstruct application dependencies utilizing a conformance check to implement security policies of the system, the application dependencies are reconstructed with respect to a service instance of a second environment based on the application profile analysis to produce an updated environment, the system generating mapped runtime environment variables and services as the service instance based on analyzing the application profile, the updated environment serves and binds information-sensitive end-user data during migrating of the application, the updated environment comprising the reconstructed application dependencies, the conformance check being an automatic check of conformance requirements of migration prerequisites against the application profile; and
migrate the application from the first environment to the updated environment with the reconstructed application dependencies.
8. The computer program product of claim 7 , wherein the first environment comprises a Platform as a Service environment, and wherein the second environment comprises a target environment.
9. The computer program product of claim 7 , wherein the program instructions further cause the processor to provide an option for automatic fix for each item of the application profile that is found in nonconformance during the conformance check.
10. The computer program product of claim 7 , wherein the application dependencies comprise environment variables and service bindings on the updated environment.
11. The computer program product of claim 7 , wherein environment variables and service bindings of the application are updated with auto mapping based on generating conformance service access endpoint information in the second environment.
12. The computer program product of claim 7 , wherein the computer program product is provided as a service in a cloud environment.
