The Open Cloud Initiative launches
The Open Cloud Initiative has
announced
its existence. "Its purpose is to provide a legal framework
within which the greater cloud computing community of users and providers
can reach consensus on a set of requirements for Open Cloud, as described
in the Open Cloud Principles (OCP) document, and then apply those
requirements to cloud computing products and services, again by way of
community consensus." Comments are sought on the draft open cloud
principles.
