Summary:
"Built upon a unique academic, industry, and government partnership, the The Massachusetts Open Cloud (MOC) is comprised of deeply interconnected projects with the same goal: to develop an open, production-quality cloud computing system that enables research and provides leading-edge services for scientific computing.
