Cloud Computing in the Digital Agenda
“Europe […] should develop an EU-wide strategy on 'cloud
computing'”
A Digital Agenda for Europe (COM(2010)245, 19.05.2010),http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=CELEX:52010DC0245(01):EN:NOT

Why?
1. Economic potential for cloud supply & especially demand sides
2. Cloud computing will happen: to or with us?
3. Many policies impact cloud & vice versa: horizontal view needed

“[T]he deliverable is a document
combining analysis and a plan of
future actions. I want to have this
in place no later than 2012.”
Neelie Kroes, 27 January 2011
When?
![Page 10: The European Cloud Computing Strategy: Key Actions](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070314/554d41d8b4c9053c678b4f52/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
“First, the legal framework: users' rights, data
protection and privacy […].
Second, technical and commercial fundamentals:
boosting research efforts […]
Third, the market: we will support pilot
projects for cloud deployment, and push public
procurers into action.”
Neelie Kroes, 22 March 2011
What?
![Page 11: The European Cloud Computing Strategy: Key Actions](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070314/554d41d8b4c9053c678b4f52/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Enabling and facilitating faster adoption of cloud computing
throughout all sectors of the economy
to help cut ICT costs and boost productivity and economic activity
Again: What?
![Page 12: The European Cloud Computing Strategy: Key Actions](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070314/554d41d8b4c9053c678b4f52/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
And what not?
“our overall Cloud Computing strategy,
is not about building a European super-
Cloud, neither outright nor by forcing
the integration of existing public
Cloud infrastructures.”
Neelie Kroes, 26 January 2012
![Page 13: The European Cloud Computing Strategy: Key Actions](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070314/554d41d8b4c9053c678b4f52/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Demand side: Productivity potential
for all; quicker and less risky
professional IT for new users
(e.g. start-ups)
Supply side: new opportunities for
telcos, equipment, services
providers
