To support the creation of such infrastructure, there is a need for quality testbeds for development and testing. Commercial companies create their own testbeds, but academic and government cloud researchers don’t have access to them. Therefore, funding agencies around the world have or soon will construct an array of new experiment infrastructures for in cloud computing. This BOF will provide a forum for the providers of these experimental infrastructures and their potential users to come together, and form a community of testbeds.
