A call to action for the worldwide cloud communityKey Principles.1.
Cloud providers must work together to ensure that the challenges to
cloud adoption (security, integration, portability, interoperability,
governance/management, metering/monitoring) are addressed through open
collaboration and the appropriate use of standards.2. Cloud
providers must not use their market position to lock customers into
their particular platforms and limit their choice of providers.3.
Cloud providers must use and adopt existing standards wherever
appropriate. The IT industry has invested heavily in existing standards
and standards organizations; there is no need to duplicate or reinvent
them4. When new standards (or adjustments to existing
standards) are needed, we must be judicious and pragmatic to avoid
creating too many standards. We must ensure that standards promote
innovation and do not inhibit it.5.Any community effort around
the open cloud should be driven by customer needs, not merely the
technical needs of cloud providers, and should be tested or verified
against real customer requirements.6.Cloud computing standards
organizations, advocacy groups, and communities should work together
and stay coordinated, making sure that efforts do not conflict or
overlap
