Abstract

Enterprise Cloud Computing becomes more and more prevalent in the IT and Business Application Industry. The scientific approach is now, to overcome most of the disadvantages of legacy on-premise solutions. Therefore, the existing different research streams, requirements and semantic perspectives need to be converged into one central ubiquitous, standardized architectural approach. The goal is to perform on-demand and cross-enterprise business processes in the context of Very Large Business Applications (VLBAs). Also in this context cloud standardization is one of the biggest challenges of the Open Cloud Manifesto. This paper discusses and outlines, how a semantic composition and federation based reference model (federated ERP-system) can be established for Enterprise Cloud Computing and set up for business operation. Furthermore, it is debated, how enterprises can develop and maintain enterprise software solutions in the Cloud Community in an evolutionary, self-organized way complying to Cloud Standards. In this context a metric driven Semantic Service Discovery and the Enterprise Tomograph can be seen as an entrypoint to an organic, gradable marketplace of processes exposed by cloud based Service Grids and Data Grids in graded levels of granularity and semantic abstractions.
