Cloud Governance

What is Cloud Governance?

Cloud governance can be defined as the set of policies or principles that act as a guidance for the adoption, use and management of cloud technology services. Cloud governance is an ongoing process that must sit on top of existing governance models. Cloud governance can be compared to an insurance policy which does not prevent disaster but instead lays the path to easy recovery in case of a catastrophe.

Organisations and Groups that Focus on Addressing Standards Issues:

There are a lot of cloud computing standards organisations and informal groups that are dedicated to address various standards issues that arise in any cloud environment. These groups have defined various guidelines and best practices to help interoperability and portability of data and applications. Some of the well-known organisations are as follows:

  1. • National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), United States
  2. • Cloud Security Alliance
  3. • Open Grid Forum (OGF)
  4. • Object Management Group (OMG)
  5. • Cloud Computing Interoperability Forum (CCIF)
  6. • Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF)
  7. • Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA)
  8. • Open Cloud Consortium (OCC)

The Seven-Step Model of Migration

Irrespective of the migration approach adopted, the Seven-step Model of Cloud Migration creates a more rational point of view towards the migration process and offers the ability to imbibe several best practices throughout the journey Step 1: Assess Cloud migration assessments are conducted to understand the complexities in the migration process at the code, design and architectural levels. The investment and the recurring costs are also evaluated along with gauging the tools, test cases, functionalities and other features related to the configuration. Step 2: Isolate The applications to be migrated to the cloud from the internal data center are freed of dependencies pertaining to the environment and the existing system. This step cuts a clearer picture about the complexity of the migration process. Step 3: Map Most organisations hold a detailed mapping of their environment with all the systems and applications. This information can be used to distinguish between the ...

Special Permissions in linux

The setuid permission on an executable file means that the command will run as the user owning the file, not as the user that ran the command. One example is the passwd command: [student@desktopX ~]$ ls -l /usr/bin/passwd -rw s r-xr-x. 1 root root 35504 Jul 16 2010 /usr/bin/passwd In a long listing, you can spot the setuid permissions by a lowercase s where you would normally expect the x (owner execute permissions) to be. If the owner does not have execute permissions, this will be replaced by an uppercase S . The special permission setgid on a directory means that files created in the directory will inherit their group ownership from the directory, rather than inheriting it from the creating user. This is commonly used on group collaborative directories to automatically change a file from the default private group to the shared group, or if files in a directory should be...
