European Cloud Computing Strategy
Communication adopted on 27 September: enabling and facilitating faster adoption of Cloud Computing through all sectors of the economy3 Key main actions:
Cutting through the jungle of standards Safe and fair contract terms and conditions European Cloud Partnership for public sector
DigitalAgenda
Introduction and objective
Enabling and facilitating faster adoption of cloudcomputing: public clouds spending to 2020 up from €35 billion (No
Intervention scenario) to almost €80 billion (Policy-driven scenario)
throughout all sectors of the economy: lower IT costs (81%), mobile working (46%), higher productivity (41%), standardised processes (35%), new business areas (33%) new locations (32%).
to help cut ICT costs and boost productivity, growthand jobs: cloud-related workers could exceed 3.8 million, against some
1.3 million in the “No Intervention” scenario
DigitalAgenda
General impact on users
Supply side: new opportunities for telcos, equipment, services providers
Demand side: Productivity potential for all; quicker and less risky professional IT for new users (e.g. start-ups)

DigitalAgenda
Cutting through the Jungle of Standards 2
Recognise ICT technical specifications for data protection
ENISA & others (2014) list of voluntary certification schemes
Agree with industry harmonised metrics for energy consumption & carbon emissions of cloud services
DigitalAgenda
Safe and Fair Contract Terms
Develop with stakeholders model terms for cloud computing service level agreements for professional cloud users
European model contract terms and conditions pursuant to Common European Sales Law
Review standard contractual clauses & binding corporate rules for international data transfers by cloud providers
Work with industry towards a code of conduct for cloud providers for Article 29 Working Party to endorse
DigitalAgenda
European Cloud Partnership
Identify common requirements for public sector cloud use Towards joint public procurement of cloud services Shape the market to benefit private use
