What does a cloud computing user want?
,----[ Quote ]
| The cloud you use today may not be the cloud
| you want or can afford to use later. The
| information you store in one cloud may need
| to be extracted and moved to one or more
| clouds by other providers. You may decide to
| convert from a public cloud to a private or
| private-public hybrid. Do you want to
| rewrite your cloud applications completely
| to use completely different APIs? Creating
| and using open standards is one of the best
| ways of getting interoperability.

What is the open web? Two things, at least.

| Looking back over all these materials in the
| last few days, I came to a realization: when
| you sort for broad patterns, people in the
| Mozilla world use âopen webâ in two very
| different ways:
|
| 1. The first is to describe the open web
| as a set of technologies. Itâs HTML, CSS,
| JavaScript and so on. The list of
| technologies grows over time, but all
| pass the test of being developed in the
| open, letting you create and innovate
| without asking permission. This is Atulâs
| âmagic inkâ.
| 2. The second broad category is open web
| as place or condition.

The people's cloud
,----[ Quote ]
| John Suffolk's (the Cabinet Office CIO) generously replied to my questions
| posed in last week's blog. G-Cloud is 'go' and it will be a Private Cloud,
| based on Open Standards and will use a mix of proprietary and (free?) open
| source software. All I reckon is left it to see whether it's stitched
| together by Microsoft's technology or Red Hat's.

| Our great Free, Open Source guru Richard Stallman dislikes the Cloud concept.
| He sees it as a way to hand over your freedom to proprietarists and to get
| locked into someone else's computing paradigm. Many including this author
| agree with him. Below though is a manifesto for a 'good' cloud that would
| benefit the businesses and citizens of the UK without loss of rights and
| freedoms.
