What is Daoli

Trusted Cloud Infrastructure
As industry is aiming at provisioning of services which are to be developed under a utility computing model, we work on the indispensable ingredient of trust and security. Without loss of generality, we focus on adding trust to cloud computing. Our goal is to strengthen cloud security by adding "behavior conformity" which is an assurance that principals forming a virtual organization (VO) must each act in conformity with the rules and policy of the collaborated computing. We apply Trusted Computing technologies as our means to achieving behavior conformity and we do so by working on virtualization in two layers in the software stack: OS layer and Grid middleware layer.
Daoli is a joint research project led by EMC Research China, which consists of Fudan University, Wuhan University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) and Tsinghua University. Fudan university works on process isolation. HUST implements virtual machine based cloud infrasturcture. Wuhan university focus on protecting the platform by trusted computing technologies. Tsinghua University will develop storage as a service(SaaS) applications on Daoli.
