<div dir="ltr">All,<div><br></div><div>My suggestion is to focus on a single topic such as the "pets vs cattle " discussion. My suggestion is based on the fact that the proposed session is fairly short and it would be difficult a subject such as blueprints that could cover many subjects. So we may be more productive by focusing on a single item for discussion and then reserve a half day or series of shorter sessions to cover various potential blueprints. The topic of reference architectures can also take some time given the number of potential use cases.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend since this is the same week as VMworld. BTW, I would suggest avoiding holding Operator Summits that conflicts with future VMworlds. Otherwise, I think we will be limiting participation by enterprise customers since many of the folks being assigned to OpenStack are also VMware administrators.</div>

Team - On August 25 and 26th Rackspace is hosting an Operators Meetup. This event gives people who run clouds a place to congregate, swap best practices, ideas and give feedback. It will have a round table/working/discussion session feel, with only a small number of presentations. The goals for this event are:<br>
1. Gather feedback on the issues that come up in running OpenStack and work to communicate this throughout the community<br>
2. Create a forum in which to share best practices and architectures between interested parties<br>
3. Increase constructive, proactive involvement from those running clouds<br>
<br>
<br>
We've been offered a discussion slot on 8/25 to sit down with a subset of the Operators and engage them to help us on the next steps we've identified to help us better focus our efforts or be better prepared for Paris. I'd like to get your thoughts on how we could use this time. Here are a couple of thoughts:<br>
1) Pets vs Cattle: There's a team working to develop a model to change the dynamics around this topic and create an actionable approach to planning for deploying all types of workloads in an OpenStack cloud environment. We could test our model and approach to applying it to different workloads and ask the Operators to help us. We would use this information to shape the content in the session in the Enterprise IT Strategy track in Paris.<br>
2) There are Blueprints being drafted to address some of the identified gaps. We could use this session to gain feedback and help in focusing and refining Blueprints.<br>
3) Reference Architectures & Documentation: We could use this session to better define the set of reference architectures that would be most helpful for Operators. Get feedback on the 3rd party toolset we're thinking of covering. Also, could recruit Operators who would be willing to work with us on a reference architecture or white paper on their deployment.<br>
<br>
I'm also interested in knowing if you are planning or would be interested in attending the Meetup and participating in our session.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Carol<br>
