2. What is OpenCloudware?
 Co-funded collaborative R&D project, 18 partners
 Development of software modules for building a IaaS-agnostic Dev to
PaaS enterprise-grade infrastructure platform
 Enables to easily build, generate and operate enterprise distributed
applications for deployment on any cloud
 Their modeling, assembly and build
 Their deployment and operation (PaaS)
 On multiple infrastructures (Multi-IaaS)
 3 years (Jan 2012 – Dec 2014)
 Supported by the French FSN (Fonds National pour la Société Numérique)
 Co-labeled by the Minalogic, Systematic and SCS Pôles de Compétitivité
