The aim of this working group is to discuss open standards and their implementation in projects that make use of OpenNebula clouds. Inter-project collaboration especially in the realm of support for open standards such as OCCI, CDMI and OVF, and development of standard APIs with interoperability among different ecosystem modules will be the focus of this working group.

The following projects and organizations collaborate in this Working Group:

• Myriads at INRIA Rennes - Bretagne Atlantique research center (http://www.inria.fr/en/en/teams/myriads)
  
• Distributed Systems Architecture Research Group at UCM (http://DSA-Research.org)
  
• XLAB Research (http://research.xlab.si/)
• Service Computing group at TU Dortmund (http://www.itmc.tu-dortmund.de/en/chair.html)

Ongoing efforts to implement cloud interoperability standards on OpenNebula:

• OCCI 1.1 for OpenNebula by TU Dortmund
• OVF for OpenNebula by Contrail Project

• An Open, Interoperable Cloud
• OCCI and CDMI Implementations

Coordination is performed through a mailing list.
