Cloud computing is slowly transforming itself from a hype to reality. However, its maturity and further adoption depends on its ability to address con- cerns such as security, interoperability, portability and governance at the earliest opportunity. This can be accelerated by compliance to guidelines and standards defined in consensus by the cloud providers. Without addressing these concerns, users would be wary to tread this path in spite of its powerful economic model for business computing. This chapter will explore the readiness of various standards of interoperability, security, portability and governance for the cloud computing model. The market adoption of these standards will also be explored and gaps or opportunities for improvement will be discussed.
