Open Cloud

Open Cloud = Open Standards + Open Source

Open Standards Open Virtualization Format (OVF)

Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF)

Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI)

Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA)

Open Cloud Computing Interface (OCCI)

Open Grid Forum (OGF)

Open Source Open standards adoption

Open innovation

Open ecosystems

Because interoperability is not negotiable

It's all about Freedom

Freedom to choose your cloud providers

Freedom to publish your services on both public andprivate clouds

Freedom to use any type of hardware or software

Freedom to move your applications where you need, when you want

Freedom to adapt the code to your own particular needs

Freedom to maintain control over the security and the quality of the services

5

It's also about trust

Trustworthiness is at the heart of cloud computing Openness and transparency to be guaranteed

Open Source as a catalyst For cloud industry, standardization bodies and open

sourcedevelopers to work together

to provide an efficient innovation model

to solve trustworthy issues such as Interoperability, Audit, Safety, Security, Privacy

based on openness and collaboration

Open Cloud as a lever to optimize chances for Europe to benefit from cloud computing

to establish fair and fruitful dialogue with the US
