Immediately after Max sent this mail, the following answer came back from 
Sam Smart. It was short and to the point: 
Dear Max, 
I can understand your concerns.  
Take a look at the book that I put on your desk last time I visited you. It 
was written by an international team of Cloud experts, EuroCloud; its 
publisher is a good friend of mine, Dr. Tobias Höllwarth. Its title is: "Cloud 
Migration". Check it out for a good overview of all the relevant topics. All 
of the above questions will be in answered in the book. 
Best regards, 
Sam
