Abstract: System and computer-implemented method for predicting data replication process durations of virtual computing instance migrations between computing environments uses migration metrics that are collected during data replication processes of migrations of virtual computing instances from source computing environments to destination computing environments to train at least one model for predicting data replication process durations for future migrations of virtual computing instances using at least some of the migration metrics. The at least one trained model is used to generate a prediction of a data replication process duration for the migration by a plurality of predictors.

Abstract: System and computer-implemented method for migrating virtual computing instances from source computer networks to target computer networks uses a delta sum of a plurality of the data transfer metrics collected, during a current time window, from at least one of a source computer network and a target computer network during a replication process of copying data of a virtual computing instance from the source computer network to the target computer network. The delta sum is used to derive a current data transfer rate, which is used to compute a first estimation of transfer completion time using a moving average rate, and to compute a second estimation of transfer completion time using a weighted moving average rate with weights defined by an alpha value. The alpha value is selectively adjusted for a subsequent estimation of transfer completion time using divergence of the first and second estimations of transfer completion time.

Abstract: A method of migrating a virtualized computing instance between source and destination virtualized computing systems includes executing a first migration workflow in the source virtualized computing system between a source host computer and a first mobility agent simulating a destination host, executing a second migration workflow in the destination virtualized computing system between a second mobility agent simulating a source host and a destination host computer, sending, as part of the first migration workflow, a configuration of the migrated virtualized computing instance to the destination virtualized computing system, translating, as part of the second migration workflow, infrastructure-dependent information in the configuration of the migrated virtualized computing instance, and transferring, during execution of the first and second migration workflows, migration data including the virtualized computing instance between the source host and the destination host over a network.
