Description

Deutsche Börse Cloud Exchange (DBCE) has launched an exchange market for IaaS cloud resources. In this presentation, the general concept, the services, and the definition of the tradable products is shown. Two key elements of an exchange are neutrality and transparency. At Deutsche Börse Cloud Exchange these are achieved with the help of standardisation on different levels.

The presentation will be followed by a live demo.
