A large number of design and architecture patterns have been identified during the last years, as the Cloud technologies were finding their path to maturity. In [] Fehling et al., a basic pattern-oriented view on Cloud computing was exposed, together with relevant patterns, which is also applicable in the case of multi-Cloud applications.

SOFTEAM is a French middle-sized company that provides the Modelio modelling tool. Modelio is an enterprise-level open source modelling solution delivering functionality for business, software and infrastructure architects.

To move an existing application to a Cloud-based operating model is a challenging task. This chapter presents a real life case in this domain. It is based on a case study from BOC which uses MODAClouds technology to enact four major use cases for the Cloud deployment of the BPM tool ADONIS. The first use case describes the provider selection in a multi-Cloud environment based on the decision support system Venues 4Clouds.

This chapter presents a real life case based on a case study from Atos which uses the MODAClouds framework to manage the design, deployment and governance of a telemedicine solution in a hybrid multi-Cloud environment.

An interesting commercial use-case for Flexiant of the MODAClouds solution is based upon adding extra functionality to Flexiant Cloud Orchestrator (FCO) [] Triggers []. Triggers are functions that allow an action in FCO to initiate a second action, which can either be internal or even external to Flexiant Cloud Orchestrator.

The MODAClouds approach offers a set of innovative techniques for development and runtime operation management of multicloud applications. In particular it delivers an open source integrated development environment for the high-level design, cloud service selection, early prototyping, QoS assessments, semi-automatic code generation, and automatic deployment of multicloud applications, as presented in Part I Dev. Secondly it delivers a run-time environment for monitoring, dynamic adaptation, and data migration to optimize multicloud application execution with respect to quality of service concerns, as presented in Part II Ops. Thirdly it delivers DevOps enabling features supporting continuous design, deployment and QoS analysis for performance optimization, as presented in Part III DevOps. Finally to demonstrate the technology the book discusses a set of applications from various domains ranging from more classical information systems with the model management and business process modelling applications to the Internet of Things and Cyber Physical Systems domains with e-health and smart city applications. Part IV Applications discusses the demonstration of the general applicability the MODAClouds approach and the main MODAClouds techniques and features, as presented in Part IV Applications.
