The Konveyor project aims at providing differential value at each stage of the migration process. So far, most of the focus has been put on the assessment and rationalization stages, offering little value to the planning required to scale out the migration process across the whole application portfolio. When dealing with a large scale portfolio of hundreds or even thousands of applications, it is simply not possible to execute the migration process on a big bang approach addressing the whole portfolio at once. A common way to tackle adoption at scale is to break the portfolio into different waves and execute the adoption effort in an iterative fashion. This enhancement aims to enable Konveyor to define migration waves with the applications in the inventory as a first step towards a more sophisticated approach that could automate calculation of these waves based on different criteria.

This RFE is fleshed out in the Migration Waves Enhancement.
