TM Forum Enterprise Cloud Leadership CouncilDirector
Jan. 2011 - Jul. 2014I coordinated the work of the Cloud Leadership Council including its initiatives on Workplace as a Service (WPaaS), Software Defined Data Center and Illustrations of Use of SDN and NFV for the enterprise WAN. I worked to bring the work of ECLC to a wider audience and to build relationships with other cloud groups such as ODCA, ONF, and OMA. ECLC is a council of cloud computing buyers and includes a number of the largest users of clouds, many of which have built private clouds. Among the more active ECLC members over the time I was active with it were: Deutsche Bank, ING, Bank of America, Commonwealth Bank of Australia, Dassault, Motorola, Photronics, Northrop-Grumman, State Street Financial, Thales Corporation and Univa. We also collaborated closely with Cisco, ServiceMesh, Netronome, PLUMgrid, and Syracuse University.
