Cloud computing is already a fact, which nobody doubts. Moreover, with cloud technologies, organizations can focus on their main activities. In the cloud each user has access to the highest quality services. Along with the various positive effects, vendors face a number of problems and undeveloped areas. Preparation of the stakeholders is crucial for each project. More or less the technologies are the same, but the way we use them is not the same in the cloud. Former flaws are today’s advantages, former fundamentals for developers are no longer available in the cloud. Are we ready to forget all that we know and start over again to learn and how sustainable is the new knowledge – these are the open questions that stakeholders raise today.

4. Providers offer clouds to the customer –
either via dedicated APIs (PaaS), virtual
machines and/or direct access to the
resources (IaaS).
Note: Hosts of cloud enhanced services
(SaaS) are typically referred to as Service
Providers, though there may be ambiguity
between the terms ServiceProvider and
Cloud Provider.
5. Resellers or Aggregators
aggregate cloud platforms
from cloud providers to
either provide a larger
resource infrastructure to
their customers or to provide
enhanced features.
This relates to community
clouds in so far as the cloud
aggregators may expose a
single interface to a merged
cloud infrastructure.
6. Adopters or (Software / Services) Vendors
enhance their own services and capabilities
by exploiting cloud platforms from cloud
providers or cloud resellers.
The cloud enhanced
services thus effectively
become SaaS.

7. Consumers or Users make direct use of the
cloud capabilities – as opposed to cloud
resellers and cloud adopters, however, not to
improve the services and capabilities, but to
make use of the direct results.
8. (Cloud) Tool Providers do not actually
provide cloud capabilities, but supporting
tools such as programming environments,
virtual machine management etc.
