This research is on the identification of components that are general across cloud platforms. These components are classified under hardware, virtualisation and cloud management. These building blocks encompass nodes and clusters, hypervisors, virtual machines, networks and network isolation, billing and accounting, elasticity, cloud storage, security and monitoring, to name but a few.
