== History: Removal of the previous mention to "NASA's OpenNebula" for lack of references, repaced by Nebula ==

Hello,

OpenNebula was listed as NASA's project, which seems to be wrong: the linked page, [[OpenNebula]], had nothing to do with NASA, but with a Spanish university spinoff ([[OpenNebula Systems]]).

There's no evidence of NASA having anything to do with OpenNebula, and there are no references to OpenNebula in the reference paper, "The RESERVOIR Model and Architecture for Open Federated Cloud Computing", which is publicly available at https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.330.3880&rep=rep1&type=pdf

Indeed, the right reference seems to be Nebula: https://www.nasa.gov/open/nebula.html

First usage of the concept

I have reverted the addition of an alleged first introduction of this concept by Hardy F. Schloer. True or not, this is a strong extraordinary claim and needs sourcing by an acknowledged expert in a reliable mainstream publication who thoroughly analyzes this claim in context. Primary sources like patents are insufficient for such a strong claim, as are student projects or mere conference papers with a passing mention that have been published on a NGO website and republished in a minor journal (that is apparently connected to the NGO and focusses on mere republications of such conference papers). The authors' expertise and academic credentials in the mentioned school are also unclear - again such a strong claim should be made by an acknowledged reputed expert. Wikipedia is no venue to popularize new ideas and theories from research scholars and students with insufficient coverage in academic expert sources.

I agree; this clearly shouldn't be in the article. power~enwiki (π, ν) 16:38, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This includes data caps, which are placed on cloud users by the cloud vendor allocating certain amount of bandwidth for each customer and are often shared among other cloud users.[120] [1]

Clarity and neutrality

Daveburstein (talk) 23:17, 10 February 2019 (UTC) I rewrote the first few paragraphs to make them more understandable to a non-technical user. I also removed or reworked what I considered non-neutral. It would be good to do similar for the whole article. Dave[reply]

Edit History

Hello,

I am requesting to update the history section and add a paragraph about the BSCW system being the first system that you would call "cloud" today. It was developed by the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Information Technology and published in 1995. There is a article about it on their page that can be found at https://www.fit.fraunhofer.de/en/fb/cscw/projects/bscw_20-Jahre.html. It is also included at the german Cloud Computing Wikipedia page. I think it would be a good addition to the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by OrbiTeam (talkcontribs) 09:56, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Characteristics

Hello,

the chapter "Characteristics" is in my opinion too single sided in favour of cloud providers. There's no real con argument. Some examples: latency is in case of cloud computing higher than for "local" processing. Billing is unreproducible for the user as you have to trust your cloud provider that it does it correctly. Cloud servers are usually overcommitted meaning that worst case the cloud provider can't give your application more capacity as there's none. (DDoS-) Attacks on cloud providers threaten cloud users businesses as the "internal" team of cloud users can't do anything when they depend on a connection to the cloud provider.

@Leuchuk: - Good point. It is rather one-sided. There are some of the negatives discussed in the Limitations and disadvantages section, but they are not covered in any depth. If someone did have the time to find some reliable sources and add some critique of cloud computing, that could be a useful contribution to the article. (I don't see having the time myself, but maybe I will sometime in the future if no one else does it first.) - Dyork (talk) 16:18, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
