Usage scenarios involving services from multiple Clouds, like in Federations or Markets of Clouds, are imposing the development of complex middleware to hide the heterogeneity at the underlying Cloud technologies and services in order to attract Cloud application developers. This paper points towards the specific modules of a recent open-source and Cloud-vendor agnostic platform-as-as-service which are using artificial intelligence methods and automatic computing techniques. A particular attention is payed to those modules of the underlying multi-agent system that are ensuring the connection to different Cloud services.
