Title : Cloud Reference Framework Author(s) : Bhumip Khasnabish Chu JunSheng Ma SuAn Meng Yu Ning So Paul Unbehagen Monique Morrow Masum Hasan Yuri Demchenko Filename : draft-khasnabish-cloud-reference-framework-03.txt Pages : 39 Date : 2012-06-27 Abstract: This document presents a cloud reference framework. In general, a cloud-based system utilizes virtualized computing/communications/ storage resources and applications. In the emerging cloud-based systems, virtualized infrastructures and services are provisioned on on-demand basis, and configured for specific customer needs or tasks. The reference framework is based on the survey of the SDOs and WGs that are focusing on cloud-based systems and services (Cloud SDO, I-D.Khasnabish-cloud-sdo-survey) and other research and developments in the cloud technology area. Both intra-cloud and inter-cloud reference frameworks are presented and the requirements of each layer are discussed.
