A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

This document provides an open and extensible log format to be used
by any cloud entity or cloud application to log and trace activities
that occur in the cloud.  It is equally applicable for cloud
infrastructure (IaaS), platform (PaaS), and application (SaaS)
services.  CloudLog is defferent in content, but not in nature from
the traditional logging as it takes in account transient nature of
identities and resources in the cloud.

Chris et al.

I have written a technical review of why a cloud logging standard =
doesn't make any sense here:

- =
http://raffy.ch/blog/2011/02/14/why-a-cloud-logging-standard-doesnt-make-a=
ny-sense/

Aside from the many many shortcomings that are addressed in my blog =
post, standardizing cloud logging is like saying we are going to write a =
standard for mobile phone logging, one for green data center =
initiatives, one for virtualization, etc. We need one standard. The =
cloud is not special. It's a virtualized, distributed, asynchronous =
environment. We need to add these (and other) use-cases to an existing =
or a new logging standard, but not create a variety of different =
use-cases. Let's define what the cloud use-case demands and add it as a =
requirement to some other standard.

Please consider this when looking at the cloud-draft.

Thank you!

Raffael.
I have responded to your blog post in a private e-mail a few weeks ago.

There are two aspects here that I feel need addressing.

1. If I take your statement that that standardization of logging in the clo=
ud is not needed than conversation about technical merits of the proposal i=
s completely irrelevant! Why even bother working out the correct technical =
solution if the problem does not even exist?
2. I completely agree that we need ONE standard. We actually already have i=
t - Syslog.

CloudLog is an extension to Syslog and using exiting and well defined Syslo=
g facilities. You are proposing CEE instead, which cannot really be easily =
mapped to Syslog hence all existing facilities will not work.

I would also argue that CloudLog is really a protocol, while CEE looks rath=
er like a data model to me.

If anything they are rather orthogonal to each other.=20

I completely disagree that Cloud is not special. Like any other new IT depl=
oyment, Cloud brings a slew of new and previously not considered uses cases=
. Those use cases are discussed in the latest rev of the draft.
One size fits all has never worked and never will.
As new technology gets developed new methodologies and protocols are needed=
.
With rapid adoption of Cloud deployments - SaaS, PaaS and IaaS - we need pr=
otocols and methodologies to manage and monitor them.
Even exiting traditional security solutions don't really work with Cloud de=
ployments  as, for example, with IaaS traditional NIDS does not have access=
 to the network traffic.
Same applies to logging. Your usage and access paradigm is changed and logg=
ing of them needs to keep up.=20

Best.
