Openstack & Ceph Amsterdam June Meetup

Rackspace is sponsoring (again, as they sponsored the very first meetup, 3 years ago!) our June meetup and we'll line up great speakers before the summer holidays.

We will start a bit early, and we'll have dinner in between the speakers (around 18.30). More details will follow soon, and if you know someone that wants to give a talk, or you're willing to give one yourself, please don't hesitate to ping one of us on Slack (get an invite at https://openstackamsterdam.herokuapp.com if you're not in already).

Agenda:

17.30: Opening and welcome

18:00 Introduction by Geoff Higginbottom

Looking back on OpenStack Summit Austin 2016, a 15 minute overview.

18:15 First talk:

Ceilometer Demystified

Arnoud de Jonge

When planning the upgrade from Kilo to Liberty, we encountered some nice surprises caused by the way meters are now being processed in Liberty. This led us to do some intensive research into the inner workings of Ceilometer. In this talk I will show you how we use Ceilometer at Fuga and what changed in the pipeline configuration in Ceilometer and how to properly configure it.

About Arnoud:

Has been doing DevOps since DevOps was not a job title yet. Started his OpenStack journey when joining Cyso in 2013, and has been one of the main architects of Fuga.io (http://fuga.io/) since then.

18.45: Dinner

19.30 Second talk:

From Zero to OpenStack in less than 10 steps - using OpenStack Ansible

Shashi Dahal

About Shashi:

Shashi works as team lead and senior OpenStack engineer at CloudVps, the first and the largest public cloud provider in openstack.

As always, you're welcome to get 5 minutes on stage if you want to talk about a specific topic, you can get a 1-minute pitch for recruiting or promoting your company or product as well!

See you on the 22nd,
