Abstract

Clouds are intend mainly to host Web applications exposed through the interfaces of services but due to several particular and interesting aspects of the Clouds, like elasticity and scalability, legacy standalone and distributed applications can also benefit from the resources offered by the Clouds. We describe in this paper a simple-to-use platform allowing to run legacy applications on Cloud computing environments. This platform is one of the results of a large project dealing with the portability of the applications running on Clouds.
