Project Exploration

Cloud Services team's mandate includes two service classes: Firefox Services and User Web Services.

Defining Firefox Services

• One or more Firefox teams lead each Firefox Service, defining features, implementing and integrating within Firefox, and marketing the Firefox Service as a Firefox feature.
• Cloud Services team supports the Firefox team as its customer, primarily via providing the Firefox Accounts service APIs for identity, authentication and storage as required of each Firefox Service.
• Firefox Services typically support and extend Firefox features, providing user task continuity across Firefox instances and devices by time- and space-shifting Firefox state.

Prospective Firefox Services

• Firefox Backup - Enable Firefox to save/recover previous Firefox states

Defining User Web Services

• The Cloud Services team leads each User Web Service, defining features, implementing the Web front-end and back-ends, and marketing the User Web service as a Firefox Account feature. As a User Service matures, it may graduate to a Firefox feature.
• Firefox teams support the Cloud Services team as its customer, primarily via Firefox integration and distribution.
• User Web Services typically support and extend Open Web user identity, data and personalization by delivering market differentiated, defensible, sustainable, SaaS and PaaS-style services to achieve the Mozilla mission of user utility, agency and sovereignty.

Prospective User Web Services

• Firefox Account Pro - Exclusive access to our Cloud Services betas
• Firefox Faces - Open Web Messaging
• Firefox Friends - Open Web Social Publishing
• Firefox Finesse - Open Web Personalization
• Firefox Flow - Open Web Mobile Assistant
