SP 800-146 - DRAFT Cloud Computing Synopsis and Recommendations The cloud computing research team at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is requesting public comments on a draft of its most complete guide to cloud computing to date.
Draft Special Publication 800-146, NIST Cloud Computing Synopsis and Recommendations explains cloud computing technology in plain terms and provides practical information for information technology decision makers interested in moving into the cloud. Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources-for example networks, servers, storage, applications and services-that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.
Comments for this draft should be sent to 800-146comments@nist.gov by June 13, 2011. Draft-NIST-SP800-146.pdf (1.9 MB)
