We Have Lots of Cloud Standards…

Also Lots of Cloud Products & Services

…

… Where are They Targeted?… Where are the Gaps?

Infrastructure as a Service– Virtual Data Centers (VDC)– Virtual Networks (VN)– Virtual Machines (VM)

Platform as a Service– Cloud Compute Services– Data/Table Cloud Services– Cloud Storage Services

Open Virtualization Format (OVF)

Open Cloud Computing Interface (OCCI)

SNIA Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI)

Large Data Cloud Interoperability Framework

Use Case 1. Virtual Network Migration

How do you instantly migrate a collection of applications in the cloud from one virtual network (VN) or cloud to another?

Cloud 1

Cloud 2

Collection of applications

We developed a simple open source reference implementation. We are in the process of transitioning to IF-MAP.

Use Case 2: (Large) Cloud Storage

Given a file or dataset spanning hundreds of physical or virtual machines, migrate it to another virtual network.

Cloud 1

Large data cloud storage and compute services

Cloud 2

Near Term Focus

Infrastructure as a Service– Virtual Data Centers (VDC)– Virtual Networks (VN)– Virtual Machines (VM)– Physical Resources

Platform as a Service– Cloud Compute Services– Data as a Service

Open Virtualization Format (OVF)

Open Cloud Computing Interface (OCCI)

SNIA Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI)

Large Data Cloud Interoperability Framework

Naming entities in IaaS & PaaS Bridging IaaS & DaaS Services that span multiple VMs, ….

Intercloud Testbed

• OCC will host IF-MAP registry for those interested in experimenting with intercloud services.

• Working group is focusing on two use cases: VN migration and (large) cloud data services use cases.

• Plan to release open source reference implementation.

• Synergy with OCC Open Science Data Cloud.
