Example: Cloud Services

Problems

•Countless offerings in the wild

•No coherent description of services available

•No common marketplace

•Comparison of offerings (price, SLA, capabilities, …) is very difficult for users

Linked-USDL can help to put light into the dark and make Cloud offerings more transparent to the consumer!


Cloud Vocabulary

• CPU Power, Memory and Storage

• IP Addresses and I/O Performance

• Data Recovery

• Availability and Service Level Agreements

• Credit system

• Legal issues

• Support services

• Third parties involved


How to express in Linked-USDL

Generic USDL vocabularies:

•usdl-core

•usdl-sla

•usdl-price

Complementing domain specific Cloud vocabularies

•cloud vocabulary taxonomy, specific qualitative and quantitative non-functional properties

•operating system taxonomy

•support vocabulary
