Vendor Talk: Deploy and Scale OpenStack

Vendor
Thursday, November 13, 2014 - 2:00pm-3:30pm

Dustin Kirkland, Canonical

Abstract: 

OpenStack is the world's leading open source cloud platform, and is already changing the way enterprises approach cloud computing, specifically enabling massive scale private infrastructure as a service. Any OpenStack deployment involves multiple required components, and many more optional add-ons. As such, your first OpenStack installation can be intimidating, with the various moving pieces. And scaling it—well, where do you even begin? You begin by attending this session! In 90 minutes, we will deploy OpenStack multiple times, to real, physical hardware nodes, on stage, with LEDs that even light up. We'll scale up core services, such as compute (Nova) and storage (Swift, Ceph, Cinder). We'll create a network (Neutron), import images (Glance). And we'll launch some instances. Finally, we'll deploy a real workload to our brand new private cloud. You should leave this session with thorough practical knowledge about OpenStack's core components, as well as effective and efficient mechanisms for deploying and scaling OpenStack in a real environment.

Dustin Kirkland is Canonical's Cloud Product Manager, leading the technical product strategy, road map, and life cycle of the Ubuntu Cloud commercial offerings. Formerly the CTO of Gazzang, a venture funded start-up acquired by Cloudera, Dustin designed and implemented an innovative key management system for the cloud, called zTrustee, and delivered comprehensive security for cloud and big data platforms with eCryptfs and other encryption technologies. Dustin is an active Core Developer of the Ubuntu Linux distribution,maintainer of 20+ open source projects, and the creator of Byobu. Dustin lives in Austin, Texas, with his wife Kim, daughters, and his Australian Shepherds, Aggie and Tiger. Dustin is also an avid home brewer.
