5 Relationship with SDOs OpenNebula team (UCM) contributing to OCCI. - No direct contribution from StratusLab project. Issues identified - Complexity of standards is always in issue when you try to adopt them. Feedback to SDOs would be useful in order to rationalize various parts, simplify and make more straightforward to apply. - Strike a balance between very abstract standards that have generic applicability but difficult to implement and very specialized standards that may not cover a specific use case. - Gap identified in networking virtualization standards. 5
