Is the EMC VMWare "cloud virtualisation" suite consistent/compliant with
kvm/libvirt, etc.? My understanding is that the EMC product is
compatible with typical REST implimentations in that these evolved from
various HTTP related services.
Also, for reasons we could discuss off-list (or on list if you prefer),
my personal preference is for Xen as a virtualisation suites. My
understanding is that Xen does well integrate into a number of
environments and distros.

I would think that your definition of 'cloud' is the most important
aspect here, not whether or not the term 'Red Hat' is associated with it.
The virtualization technology powering RHEV is kvm, which is fully
compliant with libvirt (http://libvirt.org/). If you didn't want to
use RHEV or Ovirt you could interact direclty with the libvirt API.
The business logic that those products provide isn't there, of course,
but you could build that out yourself if you were so inclined. It just
takes time & talent.
Is that what you're talking about wanting?

Does SL (i.e., TUV EL) have a standard enterprise-quality
production REST API that will interoperate with non-EL "clouds"?
The most I could find on a short search is:
http://developerblog.redhat.com/2013/12/12/advanced_integration_rhevm-part1/
Advanced integration with Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization
Manager (RHEV-M) – Part 1 of 2
and
https://fedorahosted.org/rhevm-api/
This is an effort to define an official REST API for Red Hat
Enterprise Virtualization
<http://www.redhat.com/virtualization/rhev/>.
but that the fedorahosted project above is obsolete, replaced by:
http://www.ovirt.org/Subprojects
in which any mention of TUV by name is in the title of each reference.
