Federated Cloud Services Configuration and Orchestration

云计算允许组织根据现有需求扩大或缩小其计算足迹。然而，现有的云交付模型支持单独的隔离和异构功能，这阻碍了内部部署和外部部署应用程序、服务和资源的有效协调组合。该项目旨在为异构云服务上的模型驱动和弹性配置以及资源编排的科学基础做出重大贡献。该项目的成果旨在通过可互操作和弹性的云服务技术，以及为新的数字经济提供适当的技能，为提高生产力和经济增长做出贡献。

Cloud computing allows organisations to expand or contract their computing footprint based on existing demand. However, existing cloud delivery models support individual segregated and heterogeneous functionalities, which prevent effective coordinated combination of on-premise and off-premise applications, services, and resources. This project aims to significantly contribute to the scientific foundations for the model-driven and elastic configuration and orchestration of resources over heterogeneous cloud services. The outcomes of the project aim to contribute to lifting productivity and economic growth through interoperable and elastic cloud service technologies as well as delivering appropriate skills for the new digital economy.
