Abstract
A server computer system receives a request to launch a deployment and determines a set of matches from a pool of cloud providers that meets minimum requirements for the deployment. The server computer identifies a selection criteria comprising priority ranking criteria and probability ranking criteria for the deployment. The server computer then determines one of the cloud providers for the deployment from the set of matches based on the priority ranking criteria and the probability ranking criteria.
