A method for migrating network entities to a cloud computing infrastructure includes receiving an indication of at least one node of a plurality of nodes to migrate from an enterprise network to a cloud computing infrastructure, identifying one or more related nodes of the plurality of nodes that have direct and indirect communication relationships with the indicated node, and adding the indicated node and at least one node of the related nodes for the indicated node to a migration group. The method includes preparing a migration-configuration file for each node of the migration group, the migration-configuration file comprising service level agreement (SLA) information, deploying a migration agent to each node of the migration group, and migrating the migration group to the cloud computing infrastructure, wherein each node of the migration group is migrated using a corresponding migration-configuration file to generate an SLA for each node of the migration group with a provider of the cloud computing infrastructure in view of SLA information from the corresponding migration configuration file.
