Open Cloud, Open Data
summary
Microsoft outlines four concrete requirements for interoperable clouds: data portability, reuse of existing standards and new ones where needed, ease of migration/deployment between on‑premise and multiple clouds, and developer choice. Azure is described in three layers—Windows Azure compute/storage, SQL Azure database, and an appfabric service bus—accessed via REST/XML and OData (odata.org). Open PHP, Java and iPhone SDKs exist. A working example, i‑on‑earth.eu, demonstrates crowdsourced air and water monitoring across Europe.
