Abstract

The cloud computing paradigm is transforming the way IT services are provided and consumed. The moving of in-house IT services to the cloud-computing paradigm should be performed carefully lest cause high losses in the institution that is in the process of transition to cloud computing. So, in this paper, we presents a study of several frameworks developed to move IT services and applications to the cloud computing. The work ends with a summary description of the proposed solution, by the same authors, to the migration of services, applications, data and infrastructures to cloud computing. The solution encompasses a framework with a set of processes that are supported by the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL).
