Cloud’s today are islands. In the days before the internet, so were the different networks. What can we learn from how competing companies, with open protocols, the IETF, and RFC's created what we now know as the internet? As an open source community, is OpenStack where we start to envision an "InterCloud"?

The Intercloud
§ OpenStack based, Open Standards
§ Business peering relationships
§ Agreed upon federation, identity,
security, policy language

§ Multiple geographic/national locations
§ Become distributed across larger number of sites on the internet
§ Meet national sovereignty requirements
§ Be global, serve local
§ Multi-vendor – common model
§ Reduces dependency on single vendor
§ Force competition on pricing/performance/service
§ Aligns with one of the primary OpenStack customer value propositions
§ Better resilience if can strike the right balance between homogeneous and
heterogeneous systems

§ Federated Identity
§ Keystone federation:
§ http://docs.openstack.org/developer/keystone/configure_federation.html
§ Move up from the network to capture developer intent
§ Group-based policy to express policy for connecting services rather than
managing low level networking setting:
§ https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/GroupBasedPolicy
§ First and foremost: adoption of OpenStack is critical
§ Make OpenStack the most trusted, easiest place to innovate
§ Extend networking capabilities both within and beyond the data center,
hybrid-cloud technologies, SDN, NFV, IPV6
