Printable Summary
After the demonstration of the current state of the Federated Clouds technology and testbed, an open workshop will be held to reflect the current status with any interested party, and to elicit requirements and gaps to satisfy stakeholder use cases and goals for engaging with a federated Clouds infrastructure. Resource Providers will be able to evaluate which further actions need to be taken before they can join the Cloud infrastructure federation, both on the federation's side and the provider's side. Commercial cloud providers may learn about which services and technical interfaces they need to support to allow seamless Cloud bursting from a federated public sector infrastructure to commercial providers and vice versa. This workshop is intended for resource providers, their stake holders in the scientific research community and commercial cloud providers.
