[Isod-bof] Planning ISOD RG session at OGF31

[Yuri Demchenko]

Dear ISOD members,

We got confirmation that the ISOD Research Group will be established in 
the OGF Infrastructure Area. So, we can plan our first meeting at OGF31.

I know that OGF31 location will affect attendance from US and Europe but 
I think that we need to hold a meeting there, in particular to present 
our area of research and standardisation to the local R&D community and 
get their feedback. OGF31 is collocated with ISGC 2011 (International 
Symposium on Grids and Clouds 2011).

I also hope on contribution from the active ISOD BoF/RG members.

The updated ISOD-RG session request and initial draft agenda are 
enclosed below. Please comments and provide your suggestions.

Besides a formal session to discuss the charter and plan our work, we 
will have a session for projects and activities update and also for open 
discussion on the topics that are in the scope of the RG.

I would propose the following topics just to start discussion on the 
list and solicit your contribution.

5. Potential contributions discussion (see draft agenda below)
5.1. Overview and analysis Cloud provisioning models
5.2. Infrastructure Services Modeling
5.3. Other proposals about contribution (e.g. WSAG vs SLAM, etc.)

Please comment and provide suggestions.

Regards,

Yuri

P.S. It would be probably helpful if people will share their plans to 
attend.

ISOD-RG meeting at OGF31 request (updated)

On-demand Infrastructure Services provisioning Research Group (ISOD-RG) 
will hold its first meeting at OGF31 following successful BoF sessions 
at OGF30 and OGF28. The ISOD-RG will proceeds with defining its scope, 
major work items focusing on investigation of the existing practices in 
the on-demand provisioning of combined network and IT infrastructure 
resources.

The ISOD-RG will intend to leverage work done in the currently existing 
and concluded OGF working groups and other standardisation bodies to 
provide recommendation about developing a new generalised architecture 
and framework for dynamically provisioned virtualised services. The 
scope of the ISOD-RG will also include investigation of the possible 
architecture frameworks for the Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) 
provisioning model.

ISOD-RG meeting will have 2 sessions. First session will we be devoted 
to the ISOD-RG charter discussion, second session will host 
presentations devoted to the technical discussions of the planned 
deliverables and existing practices and solutions.
