[Cloud] Simplified Cloud Imaging Diagram for a typical MFD

Hi Mike,

I think it’s a great idea to put together an unambiguous reference diagram like this — It looks like the arrows in the diagram suggest elements of procedure, but I’m assuming that each type of cloud functional procedure description would reference this diagram in order to completely specify “how things work”.  The arrows just emphasize what’s defined in the functional spec.

R.

Each of the local services is "connected" to a corresponding service in the cloud.  I have purposely not included any fan-out in the diagram in order to focus our discussions on this simplified model.  We can expand our discussions once there is agreement on the simplified model/diagram.
