CCSA Cloud Computing Standardization Activities Summary
Wang zhiqin,
CCSA

2. CCSA Cloud Standard System
8 aspects of Cloud Standards have been identified
Taxonomy & Terminology
Service Requirements & Scenario
Service
Operation & Maintenance
Security
Technical Framework
Key Technology
Cloud Infrastructure

3. Cloud Standard Progress
60+ specifications or technical reports have been initiated, mainly in following areas:
Cloud Infrastructure(Green Datacenter, SDN)
Cloud computing functional requirements and reference architecture(IaaS/PaaS/NaaS/DaaS)
Cloud computing service operation requirements
Cloud security framework and requirements
Etc.

4. Green Datacenter Standards Have Been Taken into Practice
10+ cloud datacenter related specifications have been initiated, Green Datacenter is a very important topic, including:
Datacenter Energy Efficiency Metrics: define the basic metrics to the identify energy efficiency of datacenters
Technology Specification and Evaluation Methods for Green Datacenter: how to evaluate the “green level” of datacenters
Datacenter Grading and Classification Technology Specification : classify datacenters by 3 dimensions: reliability, energy efficiency, and security
Evaluations on datacenters of 6 major cloud providers in China based on these specifications have been lunched.

5. Focus of Future Cloud SLA requirements
Security requirements on specific cloud services
Cloud service migration requirements
Cloud networking
Cloud service interface

6. Challenges
Cloud service still in its “infant stage” in China. The requirements on standardization are still vague in some sense.
Attract more stakeholders of cloud participate the activities of CCSA

7. Next Steps / Actions
Pursue liaison relationships with international SDO's and organizations that are already engaged in cloud activities
Ensure the harmonization with the state of the art cloud standardization activities in the world.
