Dell - Enabling, managing and orchestrating workloads in an OpenStack environment: A behind the scenes look at Intel Rack Scale Architecture and AMI Pod Manager running on rack-scale infrastructure

Hyperscale architectures based on open designs have enabled some of the largest organizations to keep up with data growth, maximize infrastructure utilization rates and accelerate service delivery. However, as these hyperscale principles continue to influence datacenter designs, orchestrating and managing workloads becomes even more of a challenge.

In this session, attendees will get a behind the scenes look at how Dell, Intel and AMI worked together on an OpenStack technology demonstration to help companies stand up, manage and orchestrate infrastructure at scale. By coupling hyperscale inspired infrastructure running Redfish, Intel Rack Scale Architecture, AMI Pod Manager with an open-source software layer, this session will talk about our experiences and observations enabling this functionality, with a look at the challenges and pain points we ran into along the way.
