The 10-partner OCCIware R&D project leverages the Open Cloud Computing Interface standard to develop model-driven tooling and runtime, in order to break silos between layers and domains of Cloud Computing: Linked Open Data, Infrastructure, Platform, Big Data...

1. OCCIware
A framework for Everything as a Service
Marc Dutoo, Open Wide
Jean Parpaillon, Inria
CloudExpo, London
March, 12th 2015

2. Overview
Speakers
– Marc Dutoo, Head of R&D Dept. at Open Wide
● OCCIware coordinator, SOA / Data expert
– Jean Parpaillon, R&D engineer at Inria
● OW2 TC Chairman, author or erocci
Schedule
– 15' OCCI(ware) introduction
– 15' XaaS demo with erocci

3. OCCIware Factsheet
• 72 man month, 5,6m€ budget, sponsored by
French ministry of Industry
• 3 academics, 5 companies, 2 associations
• To lower Cloud Computing adoption costs and
break up barriers between its various
implementations, layers, domains
- Especially Data Center, deployment, Big Data, Linked
Data
• By bringing to OGF's Open Cloud Computing
Interface (OCCI) the power of formal languages
and model driven engineering (MDE)

7. OCCIware Outputs
• A formal, model-driven platform to manage any Cloud
resource
- Formal model of OCCI, on MIT's Alloy – Inria & TSP
- OCCIware Studio, on Eclipse EMF & Sirius – Obeo
- OCCIware@Runtime & console, using Models@Runtime –
ActiveEon & Scalair
- Deploy@OCCIware - ActiveEon & UJF
• 4 Use cases
- Data Center as a Service / IaaS, on Scalair infrastructure
- Big Data / HPC, on ActiveEon ProActive HPC platform
- Linked Open Data, on Ozwillo app store's Datacore – Pôle
Numérique & Open Wide
- Deployment interoperability, on Linagora & ActiveEon's
• Open Source (OW2, Eclipse) and standardization (OGF) with
help from a 10-strong international Scientific Orientation
Committee
