Subject: Thoughts about Cloud Profile


The scope would need to consider:

-          IaaS, PaaS, SaaS – which would we consider.

o   IT as a Service. CA has a “Labs on Demand” IaaS used by development organization for testing.  For example, the LOD service can provision a multi-platform ipv6 environment on demand.  CA also has a “Demos on Demand” IaaS used by sales organization. 

o   Platform as a Service.  Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google App Engine are examples.  Storage, Database, Mail, Memory, User, etc.

o   Software as a Service.  SalesForce.com, Google Docs, etc.

-          Scoping a “well-known” service would buy us exposure.  For example, the PaaS of Amazon or Google would be huge exposure.  Fyi – Python use increased 45% when Google deployed the Python AppServer.

-          Do we consider from a consumer perspective or provider perspective?  In other words, what do our symptoms look like?  Are they provider type symptoms (which is really just standard IT/Datacenter scenarios)?  Or, are they consumer type symptoms (which is about symptoms that the cloud provider is exposing).  See the following dashboards from a consumer perspective:

o   http://status.aws.amazon.com
