Abstract

Methods, apparatus, and processor-readable storage media for determining migrations between geographically distributed data centers are provided herein. An example computer-implemented method includes obtaining information associated with data centers that are geographically distributed relative to one another, wherein the information includes: information related to migration factors specific to the respective geographic location of each of the data centers and information related to a respective set of processes of each of the data centers; automatically generating a migration schedule based at least in part on the obtained information, wherein the migration schedule comprises one or more times for migrating at least one of the processes of a first one of the data centers to a second one of the data centers; and automatically triggering at least one migration of the at least one process between the data centers based at least in part on the migration schedule.
