SNIA Developer Conference September 15-17, 2025 | Santa Clara, CA
Abstract
As Cloud Storage matures, both as a technology and as an industry, individual storage clouds will begin to connect together, share capabilities, and focus on different areas of specialization. These advanced use cases are predicated upon a standard way to represent objects stored in the cloud, and a standard way to communicate with clouds. This session discusses how the SNIA Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI) provides this standard foundation, and enables cloud federation, peering, and specialization.
Learning Objectives
Understand emerging cloud federation, peering, and specialization use cases
Learn how the CDMI standard facilitates these use cases
Explore open challenges in cloud federation, and approaches to create interoperable clouds
