I'm doing some research into how Cloud hosting solution providers tackle 
compliance, particularly in terms of what they do to help their customers 
capture the data they need to ensure compliance e.g.

·       Do they offer compliance services to their customers

·       Do they provide any tools/dashboards etc that enable customers 
track compliance issues e.g. how many processors a hosted machine may have

·       Do they commit to notifying customers of any changes that could 
affect their compliance e.g. moving a virtual machine to a different 
physical machine or changing the configuration of a physical hosting server 
(this is needed as some products are licensed based on the configuration of 
the physical host rather than the virtual guest machine)

·       Do they advise the customer where their machines are hosted 
geographically in case the customers licenses only permit use in certain 
parts of the world

·       What about solutions where the hosting company provides the 
licenses, how do they provide documentation to the customer about what 
licenses they have been allocated should the auditor come knocking on the 
customers door?

If anyone has any comments on google app engine (or others), I'd really 
appreciate it. Thanks
