CNM Cloud Usable (in the Russian-language version, known as Работы над Облаком) is the fourth, current, phase of the CNM Cloud Project. CNM Cloud (hereinafter - the Cloud) is a set of technologies that supports CNM Cyber. This very wikipage presents the primary list of those endeavors that are included in that phase. CNM Cyber Project Coordinators (hereinafter, the Coordinators) are invited to organize work on its endeavors.

Opplet
Opplet represents (a) enterprise-wide middleware that serves the Cloud and (b) a group of end-user applications that allows end-users to utilize it. Therefore, the Opplet's functionalities can be divided into two groups:
- Services for CNM apps. Those federation services that Opplet provides to CNM apps.
- Services for end-users. Those services that Opplet provides to its end-users.
Some endeavors that are related to Opplet are included in the Farm for Opplet project (section Node clusters of this very wikipage) and DBs for Opplet project (section Database management). The core of Opplet is written specifically for the Cloud using Yii framework. Its periphery devices are assembled using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software.

CNM apps
CNM apps (hereinafter, the Apps) present end-user applications that are available to users of the Cloud. The Apps include:
- CNM stable apps that have at least 2 installations -- one is used for its target purposes and another is available for hands-on training. Any stable App needs to be able to work with our future Opplet WSO2 IS and, possibly, existing OpenLDAP. The Apps are assembled using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software only. Those endeavors that need to be undertaken for every stable App, must encompass (a) updating the Apps to the latest stable versions and install the latest patches if and when they become available and (b) documenting what we have and identify problems.
- CNM future apps that are installed on the CNM Lab Farm only. These apps represent either popular COTS packages or end-user application that can be deployed in the Cloud as CNM stable apps in the future.
This section lists both (a) those Apps that are incorporated, both CNM stable and future apps, as well as (b) some applications that may be potentially incorporated in the Cloud. Some endeavors that are related to the Apps are included in projects listed in DNS management and App-oriented sections of this very wikipage.

Panels in CNM Farms Workspaces in CNM Cloud]] to explore adding personal tools and development environments such as Eclipse to the Cloud.
- Nextcloud for CNM Cloud. New development of CNM Nextcloud to explore adding Nextcloud as a set of personal management tools to the Cloud.
- WSO2 IS for Opplet. New development of Opplet WSO2 IS to add WSO2 Identity Server (WSO2 IS) services to Opplet. Currently, Opplet utilizes OpenLDAP as its authorization and identity connector. However, OpenLDAP does not allow single sign-on (SSO) services. In addition, the Opplet developers faced troubles in changing roles and in connecting some end-user applications such as MediaWiki with OpenLDAP. Adding WSO2 IS also aims to introduce user registration in Opplet within CNM apps. Currently, the users must first register with Opplet in order to use those CNM app's services that are available for the registered users only. It is unclear at the moment whether OpenLDAP shall be kept in Opplet after WSO2 IS addition and, if so, how.
- Enrollment to Opplet. New development of Opplet Enrollment to transfer the course registration (which Moodle in Australian way calls "enrolment") from CNM Cert to Opplet. Beyond visibility of user enrollment status on Opplet dashboard, this transfer shall resolve several problems: (a) speed. The current enrollment is carried out through the cron tool, which has a response delay, (b) enrollment in LMSes other than CNM Cert. The Cert accommodates only first 3 levels of the educational programs, (c) automatic unenrollment from those courses that have successfully been completed.
- IAM to Opplet. Further development of Opplet IAM to (a) automatically add new federated Opplet roles based on the course progress and (b) communicate those roles to CNM apps. Currently, Opplet user roles can only be changed manually by Opplet administrators.
- Mail for CNM Cloud. Further development of CNM Mail Server to make sure that all CNM apps can send and, when applicable, receive emails through it.
- Exams to Opplet. New development of Opplet Exams to move test banks from CNM Moodle to Opplet.
- Warehouse for CNM Cloud. New development of Opplet Warehouse to create a federated object storage in order to make illustrations and other files available for various CNM apps. The Cloud developers earlier also discussed an idea was to utilize CNM GitLab as a file storage.
- Interface for Opplet. Further development of Opplet interface to improve its usability and graphic design.
- Events for Opplet. New development of Opplet Events to (a) organize events on the administrative side and (b) manage own participation on the end-user side in the Cloud.
- Mailboxes to Opplet. Further development of Opplet Mailboxes to accommodate its automatic creation, management, and cancelation in order to upgrade this feature from its minimum viable product (MVP) state up to the marketable one.
- Newsletters to Opplet. New development of Opplet Newsletters to add mailing list and subscription functionalities.
- Calendar for Opplet. New development of Opplet Calendar to add a federated calendar to Opplet.
- CNM Registration Project. Further development of [[Opplet profile
