Cloud Computing in the Digital Agenda
“Europe should also […] [reinforce] eInfrastructures and […] should develop an EU-
wide strategy on 'cloud computing' notably for
government and science. […] The strategy should consider
economic, legal and institutional aspects.”
A Digital Agenda for Europe (COM(2010)245, 19.05.2010),http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=CELEX:52010DC0245(01):EN:NOT
Why this?
1. Economic potential for supply & especially demand sides
2. Cloud computing will happen: to or with us?
3. Many policies impact cloud & vice versa: need horizontal view

Neelie Kroes, 27 January 2011
http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda
“Now is the time to bring
it all together. […] This
goes beyond a policy
framework. I want to make
Europe not just ‘cloud-
friendly’ but ‘cloud-
active’.”
Why now?
The Commission acts as......Policy Maker
Launches policy debates
Invites Member States to take action
Proposes EU legislation
Supports coordination
...Funding Agency
Research & Innovation projects
e.g. eGovernment building blocks
...Infrastructure Builder
Funds infrastructures
Connects Member State systems
“[T]he deliverable is a document combining analysis and a plan of future actions. I want to have this in place no later than 2012.”
Neelie Kroes, 27 January 2011
“Before the summer, I intend to present a European Cloud Strategy...”
Neelie Kroes, 24 January 2012
http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda
When?
“First, the legal framework: users' rights, data
protection and privacy - including the global aspects
[…].
Second, technical and commercial fundamentals: boosting
research efforts, and focussing them on critical issues
such as security and reliability.
Third, the market: we will support pilot projects for
cloud deployment, and push public procurers into action.”
Neelie Kroes, 22 March 2011
What?
http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda
And what not?
http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda
“our overall Cloud Computing strategy,
is not about building a European super-
Cloud, neither outright nor by forcing
the integration of existing public
Cloud infrastructures.”
Neelie Kroes, 26 January 2012

“...push public procurers into action.”
“Let me just dare to look a bit into the future. In the US there is a large framework contract for cloud computing that can be used on all levels of government. This pools a lot of procurement power. If anything, this can ‘move the market’ – and the public administrations. What would we need to do to pull off something like this in Europe?”
Neelie Kroes, 23 May 2011
Ex. 1: Public procurement
The European Cloud Partnership
http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda
“I am inviting public authorities
and industry, Cloud buyers and
suppliers, to come together in a
European Cloud Partnership. In
the first phase, the Partnership
will come up with common
requirements for Cloud
procurement.”
Neelie Kroes, 26 January 2012
Ex. 2: Content online
http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda
“...a European Cloud Strategy in
which we will assess all
possible obstacles for the
Cloud to enable a flourishing
business for content, both for
providers and right-holders.”
Neelie Kroes, 24 January 2012
Ex. 3: Data Protection
http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda
“The challenge is to take our
fundamental rights to privacy and the
protection of personal data and make
them work in the digital era. So that
we remove obstacles – and indeed give
a boost – to a competitive and
effective Cloud market.”
Neelie Kroes, 30 January 2012
