Title: CompatibleOne, The Open Source Cloud Broker

Speaker: Jamie Marshall, Prologue.

Abstract: CompatibleOne is an open source project with the goal of providing middleware for the description, brokering and federation of heterogeneous clouds comprising resources provisioned by different providers and carriers. CompatibleOne aims at being interoperable with most platforms to provide maximum freedom to users and developers and consequently breaking vendor lock-in. Ian James Marshall will demonstrate the first cloud brokerage proof of concept by CompatibleOne and show the feasibility of cloud brokerage between OpenNebula and OpenStack platforms, validating the VM interoperability mechanisms as planned by CompatibleOne. CompatibleOne is open to anyone wishing to contribute efforts for the building of an Open Cloud respecting open standards and open data formats where all software and documentation is to be published under an open source license.

The third edition of the OW2 Annual Conference will take place on November 23-24, in Paris, Orange Labs (Issy Les Moulineaux). CompatibleOne will be represented in the panel discussion " The Future of Open Source Cloud Computing" and will be presented in the Cloud Summit and in the Collaborative Projects session.
