Cloud computing integration

Appirio is providing valuable tools for cloud integration and interoperability with its new cross-cloud solutions that enables enterprise users to integrate SaaS services/applications from multiple cloud providers, e.g. Salesforce, Google Apps and others, into a homogeneous and contextual interface. This can definitely simplify the life for enterprises that are already dealing with the increasingly complex ecosystems of various APIs and platforms from various cloud vendor. I think this type of proposition, like Appirio's cross-cloud solution, certainly is an interesting step forward in corroborating the vision put forth by a number "cloud broker" proponents. Here is an interesting video for the Appirio CloudWorks:


Several organizations, like the Deltacloud and the Cloud Forum are currently developing and promoting a single API that encompasses multiple APIs from different cloud providers and frameworks that enable cloud interoperability.
