Introduction The Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI) [CDMI-1], developed by the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA), is the functional interface that applications will use to create, retrieve, update, and delete data elements from the cloud. As part of this interface, the client will be able to discover the capabilities of the cloud storage offering and use this interface to manage containers and the data that is placed in them. In addition, metadata can be set on containers and their contained data elements through this interface.Show full document text
