TECHNICAL COORDINATION TECHNICAL COORDINATION COMMITTEE (TCC)
TECHNICAL COORDINATION COMMITTEE• Primarily to coordinate Workgroup activities (both from a process and technical
perspective) – including arbitrating on intra and inter WG usage-related issues
CHARTER
• Formulate input and options for Steering Committee to act upon, for example:• Overall usage strategy• Roadmap recommendations
WG bit ti d l ti d ti• WG arbitration and resolution recommendations• Engagement and opportunities with external forums/organizations
• Own the overall usage agenda:Own the overall usage agenda: • Drive agenda by developing the roadmap of usages • Use this roadmap and usage priorities to manage delivery of work products
for each usage• Engage with partner organizations to reconcile and rationalize usage workEngage with partner organizations to reconcile and rationalize usage work
• Educate others, including vendor community, on Alliance “technical activities” through mechanisms like Webcasts and presentations at key partner/other forums, etc.o u s, etc
Note: Staffing of the TCC and WGs and nomination of WG chairs to be done by Steering Committee

WORKGROUPSOPERATIONS AND DECISIONSWG Primary Functions:• Encourage usage submission from any Alliance member via predefined template; WG reviews
and validates for inclusion or modify/enhance as necessary for inclusion
OPERATIONS AND DECISIONS
and validates for inclusion or modify/enhance as necessary for inclusion• WG directly responsible for constructing usages from practice and issues experienced by WG
member organizations• Submission restricted to only Alliance members (Contributors and Adopters)
WG Usage Development Process• WG decides process; Recommended - charter an informal study group per usage or identified
topic – may be delegated to a regional cell where required
WG Deliberations and Ratification Process:• WG tries for decision on a usage or proposed motion to be approved with full consensus – if not
possible …P i t 1 0 R i i D i i d ti d ith i l j it iti• Prior to 1.0 Revision: Decision on a usage or proposed motion done with simple majority position (50%+) (and dissent positions recorded)
• Post 1.0 Revision: Decision on a usage change/update or proposed motion adopted only with super majority (66%+)

USAGE DEFINITIONS
• Recommend Standard/Required Format with sufficient rigor• See published examples (usage examples provided at launch)• Usage versions < 1.0 for internal review and work product only; External publication at 1.0
version; publication will be periodically reviewed and revved post launchversion; publication will be periodically reviewed and revved post launch.

Problem Statement
Moving an application into a public cloud is a complicated process that may require application redesign and will require manual planning and provisioning. Once an application is instantiated in a particular public cloud, extracting it or moving it to another public cloud is difficult and non-standard.
Solution Provide intermediation/migration/brokering tools that allow for easier Cloud On-Boarding; establish Solution Provide intermediation/migration/brokering tools that allow for easier Cloud On Boarding; establish standards and federation models that allow for seamless On-Boarding.
