Abstract

Over the last years several standards and reports have been published and released (ISO CCRA, TOSCA), where best practices with respect to Cloud based application design, devel-opment and deployment are described. Other frameworks such as ITIL or EFQM provide recommendations for identifying, planning, delivering and supporting IT services to the business through adaptation of the business models and processes. All this best practices are scattered through different sources and there is not a unique criteria covering all the aspects. This paper proposes a maturity assessment approach support-ed by tools based on standards widely adopted in the industry. It covers best practices in the three dimensions and ranks the possible solutions in terms of the most suitable alternatives for cloud based solutions. The maturity assessment has been also complemented with the functionality of capturing user information, and transforming it in useful information in terms of reports and files for the migration process.
