Table I.9 – Data regulation across different countries in the inter-cloud environment

Title Data regulation across different countries in the inter-cloud environment
Description With the development of industrial globalization, data movement across
geographical borders in the inter-cloud environment is increasingly frequent.
However, data movement regulation varies significantly in different counties in
several aspects, e.g., data ownership, privacy protection, law application and
jurisdiction, as well as international trade rules. Therefore, the CSP needs to
identify the various data movement regulations once data needs to flow across
geographical borders and provide the solution, if necessary and possible.
For example, when the CSC requests SaaS service requiring datasets located
separately in country A and country B, CSP-A acts in an inter-cloud federation
pattern among CSPs and becomes the contact point for the CSC. CSP-A needs to
monitor the validity of the data movement regulation of country B and
negotiate between country A and country B, if necessary and possible.
Roles CSC, CSP (SaaS), CSP (NaaS, SaaS)

Pre-conditions (optional) The CSPs form an inter-cloud federation pattern.
The data needs to flow across borders of countries that have different data
movement regulations.
