Cloud Standards Effort Could Turn into a Dustup
A trade organization whose members include IBM (IBM), Microsoft (MSFT) and a laundry list of other tech companies announced this week that it has formed a group to create standards for a way of accessing information over the Internet known as “cloud computing.” But the new effort is just as noteworthy for who isn’t included: Google (GOOG), Amazon.com (AMZN), Salesforce.com (CRM) and other Internet companies.
The Open Cloud Standards Incubator is part of an organization called Distributed Management Task Force.
