Perspective

Applications as cost centres

Concerns for disruption of

business models

Open-Source, Web-Based, Framework for Integrating Applications with Cloud-based

Services and Personal Cloudlets.

Lack of data control

Fragmentation in data silos

Users Perspective

Personal data on the cloud

Open-Source, Web-Based, Framework for Integrating Applications with Cloud-based

Services and Personal Cloudlets. OPENi Approach

Open-Source, Web-Based, Framework for Integrating Applications with Cloud-based

Services and Personal Cloudlets.

An open-source cloud platform that will allow Users to

instantiate, deploy and manage their own Cloudlet.

An API framework that will allow Developers to build

applications that integrate dynamically a broader

spectrum of cloud-based services and at the same time

can access User Cloudlets to store and retrieve content

and data.

A set of value adding services, that will allow

Developers to easily access and use the content and

data stored in the Cloudlets across several applications

and devices.
