Cloud management architecture

Complex clouds, in particular hybrid clouds, may require tools to facilitate working across multiple clouds.

Broker between clouds

Brokering software evaluates relative costs between different cloud platforms. Cloud Management Platforms (CMP) allow the designer to determine the right location for the workload based on predetermined criteria.
