Abstract
The Cloud Information Model (CIM) is an open source project under the Joint Development Foundation, which aims to provide an open, standards-based specification for a common data model that facilitates seamless integration and communication between different cloud services and applications. It was developed to address the challenges of interoperability that arise from the diverse data models and technology stacks used by various cloud providers. By establishing a standardized approach, CIM intends to help organizations connect their data more effectively, reducing the complexity and cost associated with custom integrations.
