Easing Your Cloud Challenges and Happy Hour

Moving to a private cloud offers an organization a world of benefits, but introduces a lot of new challenges for those who need to implement and maintain it. Fortunately, there are many technologies that you can utilize to implement your cloud that can mean the difference between successful ongoing implementation and total failure.

In this seminar, you'll learn how operators with minimal experience can deploy OpenStack quickly and modify the OpenStack configuration to suit your requirements.
