Mike,

From what I have read, Cloudware is a proprietary site management architecture. I am not aware of any standards in the area that Cloudware seems to be trying to operate.

If fact, I am not sure the standards folks have anything to do with Cloudware. There are systems monitoring standards (SMP) and various web companies are trying to define format standards for server logs and private data exchange.

What is missing is an OPERATION architecture that tries all these pieces together. One of the largest problems that most IT organizations face today is tieing all their independent systems into to one clean, managable environment. This is the key feature of Cloudware. It also looks like LoudCloud is looking to provide these features not just for them, but to extend some of these management features to the customers hosting sites with them.

Note, the whole Cloudware thing is still very fuzzy and we should be looking for proof that it works. I can conceptually see what they are trying to do and agree that the problem exists. However, it would be the first time that a "visionary" failed to properly execute and deliver.
