Two of the most important developments of this new century are the
emergence of cloud computing and big data. However, the
uncertainties surrounding the failure of cloud service providers to
clearly assert ownership rights over data and databases during
cloud computing transactions and big data services have been
perceived as imposing legal risks and transaction costs. This lack
of clear ownership rights is also seen as slowing down the capacity
of the Internet market to thrive. Click-through agreements drafted
on a take-it-or-leave-it basis govern the current state of the art,
and they do not allow much room for negotiation. The novel
contribution of this book proffers a new contractual model
advocating the extension of the negotiation capabilities of cloud
customers, thus enabling an automated and machine-readable
framework, orchestrated by a cloud broker. Cloud computing and big
data are constantly evolving and transforming into new paradigms
where cloud brokers are predicted to play a vital role as
innovation intermediaries adding extra value to the entire life
cycle. This evolution will alleviate the legal uncertainties in
society by means of embedding legal requirements in the user
interface and related computer systems or its code. This book
situates the theories of law and economics and behavioral law and
economics in the context of cloud computing and takes database
rights and ownership rights of data as prime examples to represent
the problem of collecting, outsourcing, and sharing data and
databases on a global scale. It does this by highlighting the legal
constraints concerning ownership rights of data and databases and
proposes finding a solution outside the boundaries and limitations
of the law. By allowing cloud brokers to establish themselves in
the market as entities coordinating and actively engaging in the
negotiation of service-level agreements (SLAs), individual
customers as well as small and medium-sized enterprises could
efficiently and effortlessly choose a cloud provider that best
suits their needs. This approach, which the author calls "plan-like
architectures," endeavors to create a more trustworthy cloud
computing environment and to yield radical new results for the
development of the cloud computing and big data markets.
