The semantic web potentially offers a solution to the emerging problem of interoperabilty among applications hosted in the Cloud. Work being done at the Cloud Computing Interoperability Forum (CCIF) aims to create a common cloud taxonomy and ontology, which is a way to express cloud computing and its subsequent parts in terms of a consensus data model.
A group at CCIF is applying the Semantic Web to APIs as part of a broader effort to create a unified cloud interface -- a Semantic Abstraction Layer, single programmable interface for all other APIs, with OWL (Web Ontology Language) serving as the basis of that model.
