The document discusses OPENi, an open-source cloud platform that allows users to deploy and manage their own personal cloudlet. It aims to improve interoperability between mobile apps and cloud services through an API framework. This framework will allow developers to integrate a broad range of cloud services and access user cloudlets for data storage. It is a 30 month project with 7 partners across Europe seeking to inspire mobile app innovation through a consumer-centric approach.

9. Open-Source, Web-Based, Framework for Integrating Applications with Cloud-based
Services and Personal Cloudlets.
An open-source cloud platform that will allow Users to
instantiate, deploy and manage their own Cloudlet.
An API framework that will allow Developers to build
applications that integrate dynamically a broader
spectrum of cloud-based services and at the same time
can access User Cloudlets to store and retrieve content
and data.
A set of value adding services, that will allow
Developers to easily access and use the content and
data stored in the Cloudlets across several applications
and devices.
