I am looking at a very different angle of the "Cloud". Rather than the "IT functions as a service", I am looking at Virtual Network Services and Storage Services which can be offered by Service Providers. Are there anyone else interested in this area? Maybe we should form a separate discussion group.

As a result the same multiple problem spaces apply: users need to be authenticated, their access need to be controlled, activities audited, data protected, functionality provisioned and the list goes on. Cloud Security Alliance mentioned earlier does not necessarily deal with those issues. I read their guidelines and it mostly deals with deployment recommendations, but the area of auditing for example is not really covered. Ability to audit is really important if we want to insure that people that care about compliance actually use cloud technologies. Yet neither ability, nor technology for that is there. While traditional logging (syslog) is not good enough for the cloud simply because we are dealing with shared and dynamically allocated resources and user info is not consistently available. --Gene From: clouds-bounces@ietf.org [mailto:clouds-bounces@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Linda Dunbar Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2010 12:16 PM To: carlw@mcsr-labs.org; 'Mark Webb'; clouds@ietf.org Subject: Re: [clouds] Scope of the Cloud is too big I find it difficult that people in the same room talking about totally different subjects.

The technology discussions is what is key and that is what was discussed in the informal meeting. From what I can tell the purpose was to get some informal discussion going first and see what people are thinking. There seems to be some conclusion that the next step was to conduct a gap analysis. Carl From: clouds-bounces@ietf.org [mailto:clouds-bounces@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Linda Dunbar Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2010 11:48 AM To: 'Mark Webb'; clouds@ietf.org Subject: [clouds] Scope of the Cloud is too big I attended the CLOUD's bar BOF. I don't think it is appropriate for IETF to have a working group on "CLOUD" because it means different things to different people. Cloud computing is a general term for anything that involves delivering services over the Internet. I can see three basic categories: * Infrastructure-as-a-Service ( <http://searchcloudcomputing.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,290660,sid201_gci1 358983,00.html> IaaS), * Platform-as-a-Service ( <http://searchcloudcomputing.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid201_gci1332892 ,00.html> PaaS) and * Software-as-a-Service ( <http://searchcloudcomputing.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,290660,sid201_gci1 170781,00.html> SaaS) There are a lot of stuff under each of the categories above. I suggest separating them and further studying if there are enough contents for one of them to become a working group.

An important perspective is to ensure IETF does NOT start a new effort that overlaps with other SDO and Forum already underway. The industry does not need more SDO declaring they are relevant to cloud computing IMO. Seeking contributions on relevant & IETF appropriate gap analysis is the _most_ that should be pursued at this point in time.

Was there any specific area out of the white paper discussed? I think Cloud interoperability and security are topics were IETF is traditionally focusing its efforts. --Gene -----Original Message----- From: clouds-bounces@ietf.org [mailto:clouds-bounces@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Peter Saint-Andre Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2010 9:48 AM To: clouds@ietf.org Subject: Re: [clouds] Use cases On 4/7/10 8:40 AM, Gene Golovinsky wrote: > 2.
