Wondering if OpenStack is really ready for prime time? Has anyone been testing it from an operator's perspective, addressing real-world requirements? The OpenStack Innovation Center (OSIC) has been engaged in doing just that over the last 6 months, working closely with the rest of the community. We've had novices walk through an install of all the core services and made changes in the documentation, scaled a running cloud all the way up to 300 nodes with documented best practices, and added rolling upgrade capabilities and tested them when complete.
Attend this session to get a good understanding of OpenStack's readiness for serious production deployment in the Enterprise, and of the areas that still need work. We'll also cover the status of the 2000-node cluster that we have had up and running for some time, and the kind of use it has been put to by the community
Operators will go away with greater understanding and confidence about the deployment and management processes
