Creating “free” web services will require more than just making web services using AGPL licensed software. We’ll need trusted providers, protections around how data can be used and all the social aspects that the current web services have. We now have several free and open web services. Come hear what people are doing to define and create “free” web services.

- Generally speaking open source software works because of the standards or norms in the open source community. Very little control over the actions of the community but still the standards hold-up. This works for software because you can distribute the software.
- Organizations in the open source community provide “governance” and advocacy for adherence to open standards. Open Source Initiative provides guidelines for open source license. Free Software Foundation governs the GPL and advocates “free” software.
- The Cloud needs the same kind of freedoms but those relevant to the cloud. These freedoms include: Platform Freedom Data Freedom Tools Freedom
- While Cloud Computing standards are emerging it’s important to make sure that you don’t sacrifice open standards for a little temporary convenience.
- Numerous standards bodies and advocacy groups are emerging. DMTF has big corporate backing, open cloud manifesto advocate cloud standards but is more organic. Many others are forming and advocating similar though not identical things. No one’s standards can claim to be the the defacto standard.
- If you take a DVD or CD and pop it into a drive by any manufacturer it works. The same portability should exist no matter what cloud platform you run your infrastructure on. There seems to be an emerging standard in Open Virtualization Format (OVF) being championed by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF). Even if the images are compatible across platforms their might be ancillary services that you may become dependent on like Amazon’s SQS or Google AppEngine’s Big Table
- James Urquhart from Product Marketing Manager, Cloud Computing and Virtualized Data Centers at Cisco has shared his thoughts on this on his c|net blog. He outlines a complete Bill of Rights for Cloud Computing, the section on Data Rights is very good. While Data Lock-in is a concern it seems to be a problem that is tenable.
- Tools that manage, monitor and manage clouds don’t always work across platforms. For example do your SNMP rules for your Amazon AMI transfer to your private cloud running Eucalyptus, etc. How do you update your tools to authenticate to a migrated instance.
