Corporate and Public Cloudsets
Cloudsets are datasets that have been migrated to a cloud-based solution architecture.

One good example of classifying data residing in the cloud is found at: http://www.OpenDatabase.info. It is sort of a global public data repository that anyone can use for free to publish web database content for anyone to access.
As you can see, the site is in the form of a “search engine for data”. You can search for data in the cloud by keyword or by a number of business or personal categories. The publishers of the data decide the best way to classify their data.
Browsing around the OpenDatabase.info data store shows data from around the world. To bring this one source of cloud data to the masses, you can embed the OpenDatabase.info search box on your own website, blog, or social network page.
This is one example of classifying data in the cloud.
