"When it comes to cloud infrastructure portability, the reigning solutions just don't live up to their promise. Infrastructure as code (IaC) solutions like Terraform shoehorn nuanced infrastructure into too-broad terms. Cloud provider offerings like Azure Migrate, AWS Migration Services, and Google Cloud Migrate generally don't translate native workloads into competitors' clouds. And governance tools are often excellent at alerting users to finops and drift issues, but rarely help users actually fix the issues they flag."
"Capturing the full scope of public cloud setups As a first step of enabling cloud portability, Cloud Cloning starts with a complete snapshot of the source cloud infrastructure. Cloud Cloning calls the cloud provider's APIs and scans and captures the complete cloud infrastructure footprint, including the many resources, dependencies, and nuances like VPCs, subnets, firewall rules, and IAM (identity and access management) permissions that the reigning multicloud tools tend to overlook."
Cloud Cloning captures a complete snapshot of source cloud infrastructure by calling cloud provider APIs and scanning the full footprint, including resources, dependencies, VPCs, subnets, firewall rules, and IAM permissions. Cloud Cloning maps that snapshot onto target cloud services and the target cloud's configuration model to enable true portability. Cloud Cloning addresses shortcomings of IaC tools that oversimplify nuanced infrastructure and of provider migration offerings that fail to translate native workloads across clouds. Cloud Cloning also goes beyond governance tools that only alert to finops and drift by providing actionable replication and mapping to fix flagged issues.
