Cloud service have become an essential part of our every-day life and for running businesses, for example, for messaging (e.g., WhatsApp), collaborating in teams (e.g., Asana), managing businesses (e.g., SAP ByDesign), streaming video and music (e.g., Amazon Music and Video), and playing games online (e.g., GamingAnywhere).

However, most users provision cloud services of providers, such as Amazon, Google and Microsoft, also called hyperscaler, and face a vendor lock-in. Small and medium-sized cloud service providers are currently struggling in keeping up with those providers. One solution is to offer interoperable cloud services: a consumer may flexibly combine different cloud services on the market, depending on its business needs. Following this idea, cloud service ecosystems are emerging that offer customers access to diverse cloud services (e.g., via Gaia-X). Unfortunately, cloud services currently lack interoperability standards and best practices. To guide cloud service providers, a review of the status quo of cloud service interoperability is highly needed.

The objective of this thesis is to identify and compare interoperability concepts and best practices for cloud services. You conduct a literature review or interview cloud providers. I will guide you through the process.
