“PaaSLane is critical to our migration
process. I compare it to a fish finder
on a boat. Without one, the sea is
vast and you can spend lots of time
trolling and never find fish.
Looking through 100,000 lines of code to identify
what needs to change is similar. It’s easy to get lost
and waste time.”

• Best practices for developing cloud applications
• Blockers that would prevent an application from running in a
specific cloud platform
• Service recommendations for a platform’s built-in web
services to replace third-party or custom-written services
• Optimizations that enhance an application’s compatibility,
elasticity, or performance on a given cloud platform
• Governance and policy issues to help enforce corporate
standards
• Code quality standards to improve the overall quality of an
application

• Enforce platform standardization and governanceStandardization
Rules
Over 250 rules currently implemented across 7 categories:
Custom rules allow users to build rules for specific needs, for example:
• Private clouds: implement rules specific to your own private cloud technology
stack
• Standardization: implement rules to enforce corporate technology standards

Prioritizing Alerts
• May fail to run or be a high security riskBlockers
• Likely to impact performance or functionalityImportant
• May be impactful: further research requiredWarnings
• Build a more cloud-native applicationOptimizations
Each rule has a default severity, but users are able to easily re-classify any
alert based on their own needs, for example:
• Remove blockers based on acceptable risk
• Elevate warnings or optimizations to higher severity based on governance policies
PaaSLane defines four levels of severity for each alert:

What: Detect use of
RPC/RMI calls that might
indicate tight coupling of
application components
Why: Tight coupling impacts
horizontal scalability and
resiliency in a cloud. Service-
oriented architecture is
preferred.

GENERAL
Avoid Tight Coupling of Components
package example.hello;
import java.rmi.registry.LocateRegistry;
public class Client {
private Client() {}
public static void main(String[] args) {
String host = (args.length < 1) ? null : args[0];
java.rmi.registry.Registry registry = LocateRegistry.getRegistry(host);
Hello stub = (Hello) registry.lookup("Hello");
String response = stub.sayHello();
First, detect RMI classes
have been imported
Then, check for actual RMI
calls in the code
