About the OCI
The Open Cloud Initiative (OCI) is an community based organisation founded in April 2009.
Its mission is simply "To Define and Protect 'Open Cloud'".
Cloud computing users can now rest assured that offerings bearing the "Open Cloud" brand are indeed "open" in that critical freedoms (such as the right to access one’s own data in an open format via an open interface) are strongly protected. The OCI will also ensure a level playing field for all vendors while keeping the barriers to enter the marketplace low. Offerings also bearing the "Open Source" mark will have additional freedoms relating to the use, modification and distribution of the underlying software itself.
