OpenStack Summit May 2015 Vancouver

Over the past several years we have seen the continued adoption of OpenStack and it’s expansion into new areas:  from cloud service providers, enterprise private clouds to large media companies, and big science.

In the developer world, open source projects, including as Docker, Mesos, Kubernetes, and Spark are gaining a lot of attention and moving onto both private and public clouds.  Kolla and Magnum work at the intersection of these projects and OpenStack. Meanwhile new standards and open source based platforms for network functions virtualization (NFV) are fueling a need for OpenStack reference architectures such as OPNFV, and carrier-grade capabilities.   

This all adds up to an abundance of options from which application developers may choose, and choices for us to make as we integrate new capabilities into the OpenStack platform and align with other developer communities.

This session will cover how these projects and activities relate to each other and can further expand the utility and adoption OpenStack across a broad range of use cases.
