ISO Publishes Cloud Standards

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) released two new international standards for cloud computing. ISO/IEC 17788 provides common definitions for cloud terms like SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS. More technical, ISO/IEC 17789 contains diagrams and descriptions of how cloud aspects relate. The standards are largely similar to definitions by the National Institute of Standards and Technology but include additional service categories like NaaS and DSaaS.

ISO publishes cloud standards:

The International Standards Organization and the International Electrotechnical Commission, together with the International
Telecommunication Union, released two International Standards for cloud computing.
ISO/IEC 17788, Cloud computing – Overview and vocabulary, provides definitions of common cloud computing terms,
including those for cloud service categories such as Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). It also specifies the terminology for cloud deployment models such as “public” and
“private” cloud. ISO/IEC 17788 draws on definitions developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology,
including SP 800-145: The NIST Definition of Cloud Computing, SP 800-146: Cloud Computing Synopsis and
Recommendations and SP 500-292: NIST Cloud Computing Reference Architecture.
More technical in nature, ISO/IEC 17789, Cloud computing – Reference architecture, contains diagrams and descriptions
of how the various aspects of cloud computing relate to one another.
The new standards from ISO give a largely similar definition, choosing to call cloud computing an “evolving paradigm,”
according to CloudTech. The ISO’s assessment of cloud’s key concepts – including broad network access, measured service,
multi-tenancy, on-demand self-service, rapid elasticity and scalability and resource pooling – ring true with the NIST
standards, wrote CloudTech’s James Bourne.
But whereas the NIST standards define PaaS, SaaS and IaaS, ISO’s new document includes seven distinct cloud service
categories, including network as a service (NaaS) and data storage as a service (DSaaS).
Similarly, ISO expands on NIST’s 2011 definition on cloud deployment models, adding community cloud to public, private
and hybrid, Bourne wrote.
