Original Abstract Submitted

methods, systems, and computer program products for flexible virtualization system deployment into different cloud computing environments. a set of floating licenses to virtualization system software components is established. the set of floating licenses are configured to permit usage of the virtualization system software components on different cloud computing infrastructures. workload parameters of a workload to be deployed to one of the different cloud computing infrastructures is considered with respect to cloud attributes corresponding to the different cloud computing infrastructures. one or more candidate target cloud computing infrastructures are selected based upon a comparison between workload attributes of a computing workload and cloud attributes of the candidate target cloud computing infrastructures. virtualization system software components are deployed into the selected target cloud computing infrastructures. licenses to the virtualization system software components can float between any combination of different cloud computing infrastructures, including floating the licenses between private clouds and public clouds.
