==== Preliminary 2013 Report ====

The CSC has released its report in early December 2013:
http://eurocloudnl.eu/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/ETSI-CSC-Deliverable-008-Final_Report-V1_0.pdf

The report focuses on the identification of stakeholders, use cases and applicable standards for procuring cloud services. Standards are identified in three areas: SLAs, Interoperability and Security, and sorted by use case.

The following standards are invoked:

==== Other Resources by ETSI ====

**Another noteworthy resource** by [[ETSI]] is the Grid and Cloud Computing Section: http://www.etsi.org/technologies-clusters/technologies/grid-and-cloud-computing, which goes on to identify applicable standards in their Initial Analysis of Standardization Requirements for Cloud Services (http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_tr/102900_102999/102997/01.01.01_60/tr_102997v010101p.pdf)
