Event Dates: February 23, 2012 - 12:00am - February 24, 2012 - 12:00am

Cloudscape IV - Advances on Interoperability and Cloud Computing Standards
23 & 24 February 2012, European Commission premises - Avenue de Beaulieu BU, 25, Brussels, Belgium.

Cloudscape IV will focus strongly on interoperability issues with the involvement of key Standard Development Organizations (SDOs); highlighting how Distributed Computing Infrastructures' (DCIs) assets can be taken up by enterprise and eGovernment; and on the established collaboration with NIST, the US National Institute of Standards and Technology, and SIENA's recent collaboration towards the NIST Cloud Computing Roadmap.

The event will also see the launch of the second iteration of the SIENA European Roadmap on Grid and Cloud Standards for e-Science and Beyond. The Roadmap assesses and makes recommendations on the adoption and evolution of open standards-based interoperable grid and cloud computing infrastructures to support research in Europe, and more broadly public sector computing. 

As well as presentations from key stakeholders, the event offers valuable networking opportunities with members of the European Commission, standards initiatives, policy groups and the eResearch, industry and eGovernment communities.

The Cloudscape series has become an annual date for funding agencies, service providers, end-users, IT analysts and information security experts to debate on the Cloud computing landscape, covering benefits and challenges for research, enterprise, and government with practical use cases, success stories from Europe’s R&D landscape and  ample networking opportunities.
