Project Name: A META OPERATING SYSTEM FOR BROKERING HYPERDISTRIBUTED APPLICATIONS ON CLOUD COMPUTIN CONTINUUMS
Description
NebulOuS will transparently manage all the layers of the cloud continuum stack in an equivalent manner to an OS, managing the available computing capacity to facilitate an adaptive application hosting environment driven by the processing proximity to data sources and optimised based on the data involved, the defined QoS requirements and the regulatory, security or privacy constraints. NebulOuS will introduce an appropriate meta-operating system that encompasses brokerage capabilities across the cloud computing continuum. Specifically, it will enable the emergence of ad-hoc fog brokerage ecosystems that exploit IoT/edge and fog nodes in parallel to multi-cloud resources to cope with the requirements of hyper-distributed applications. Such applications will be managed by NebulOuS considering the full life-cycle support of edge and cloud resources to enable hosting nodes across organisational units of the same or different business entities or reach private datacentres of telecom providers, constituting ad-hoc cloud computing continuums.
Reason for applying to HSbooster.eu services
We would like to support engagement with standardisation organisations, how to influence the process of standardisation, how to propose new items to technical committees
Main Standardisation Interests
Task 7.2 Standardisation activities: there is a need to address interoperability among the different existing data formats, communication protocols, tools, and other related infrastructures. NebulOuS will foster dissemination at the international level, contributing and eventually influencing on standards, putting special efforts on fostering convergence among existing ones (e.g., ISO/IEC19941:2017) or extending them rather than creating new ones. To that end, active participation in standards definition working groups will be done (i.e., AIOTI, ETSI’s Cloud Standard Coordination, Open Cloud Computing Interface (OCCI) and OASIS Cloud Application Management for Platforms (CAMP) standardisation forum), aligning NebulOuS standardisation challenges with the working groups ones and examining effective contribution that may lead to mutual benefit.
