To be honest I would love to have a better way to do it, but this is how we do. We have developed a tiny script that basically performs the following actions:</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">1) Take a snapshot of the VM from the source Private Cloud</div><div class="gmail_extra">2) Halts the source VM (optional, but good for state consistency)</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">
3) Download the snapshot from source Private Cloud</div><div class="gmail_extra">4) Upload the snapshot to target Public Cloud</div><div class="gmail_extra">5) Start a new VM using the uploaded image in the target public cloud</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">6) Allocate a floating IP and attach it to the VM</div><div class="gmail_extra">7) Change DNS to point to the new floating IP</div><div class="gmail_extra">8) Perform some cleanup processes (delete source VM, deallocate its floating IP, delete snapshot from source...)</div>
