[Interoperability] The Megha Intercloud Project

[Neil McEvoy]

Hi guys

Another thought to consider is the role of potentially complimentary vendors.

For example as I've learned, to fully leverage the multi-provider Cloud capabilities of OpenNebula, you need to re-engineer your application to use these types of features.

This might be an insurmountable challenge for many, and so vendors that specialize in this capability could be very useful.

In particular I'm thinking of ZeroNines : http://www.zeronines.com/site/solution/our_technology.shtml

They split applications across Clouds.

I believe they also work closely with Intel.

Cheers, Neil.

  This article might suggest some to you: http://www.infoq.com/articles/open-interoperable-cloud
  Also there was an OCCI use case document issued in 2010: http://www.ogf.org/documents/GFD.162.pdf

    Hi folks

    Does any one have any suggested specific use cases for OCCI ?

    Thanks, Neil.

    Dear OpenNebula Interoperability group,

    We would like to introduce you “Megha”, a Spanish cloud computing
    working group. We are promoting the deployment of a federated cloud
    infrastructure based on OpenNebula and relying on an OCCI solution for
    interoperability purposes and we are interested in joining  in your
    initiative because we are sure that the objectives we follow are aligned
    with yours.

    The mission[1] of the MEGHA Working Group is to coordinate and promote
    the development and innovation in Cloud Computing technologies within
    the scope of the institutions affiliated to RedIRIS covering the
    following aspects: R&D, education and management. In parallel, MEGHA
    intends to act as a catalyst for the application of open and
    interoperable Cloud technologies in other areas in which it can
    influence, such as business and government.

    We are now in the phase of deployment and commissioning of an initial
    toy model that should provide valuable information about the future
    directions in this initiative. Centres involved have already shared
    accounts and checking basic use-cases for interoperability among the
    distributed clouds and now we're working in a truth federation issues.

    Best regards,

                             Xavier Espinal and Jordi Guijarro on behalf
    of the Megha Intercloud Project
