Discussing deploying OpenStack

Hello Stackers,

After the last meetup, it sounds like DEPLOYMENT is the #1 topic to cover. We need COMMUNITY HELP to cover this topic.

We would like to open the floor to members of this meetup community who have deployed OpenStack to share their experiences with the group on December 8th. Please contact us as soon as possible so that we can coordinate with you to be a part of the agenda.

I’m part of the Dell team of Rob Hirschfeld, Joseph George and Andi Abes organizing OpenStack meetups in Austin and Boston.

The conversation at the November meetup focused on a comprehensive look at OpenStack. From an introduction to OpenStack, through the history, and into the phenomenal growth over the past few months, the community brought highlights, anecdotes and questions that kept the conversation informational and educational. That being said, the December meeting will move to suggested topics that had been penciled in for last month – Deployment and Reference Architectures.

We now have 102 Austin OpenStack members and the next three Meetups are already sponsored!!! If you have an interest in sponsoring, please contact us as soon as possible. Sign-up now for the December 8, 2011 Meetup - 6:30 pm - at the Tech Ranch in Austin and please forward this invitation to help build our membership.

We thank Dell for sponsorship of the venue and Rackspace for sponsorship of the food and drink for the December Meetup.

See you in December!

Jean Marie
