Standard Interfaces for Open Source Infrastructure as a Service Platforms

Andrei Ionescu ()

Informatica Economica, 2015, vol. 19, issue 4, 68-80

Abstract: To reduce vendor lock-in and fragmentation and to evolve into a transparent platform, IaaS platforms must adhere to open standards. All the major open source IaaS Platforms offer interfaces compatible with the de facto standards but mostly lacks support for the de jure, open efforts of standardization. Available implementations of open standards are not part of their main development efforts. More development resources as well as consolidation of open standards are needed to achieve increased portability and interoperability.
