FP7 EU project Contrail builds an open-source cloud federation stack (11 partners, started 2010) that automates provider selection from OVF and SLA terms, negotiates multi-step SLAs, and deploys applications (demo shows a two-VM deployment). Security composes SAML/OpenID, an XACML-based usage-control (Yukon) with online PDPs, a CA, and OAuth 2 delegation for VINs. Kuffer provides a Kuffer hybrid storage layer to move VM images across Swift/S3 and local servers; demos show upload links and direct transfers.
