In addition to OpenStack features and operations, you'll find a strong focus on cross-project integration and addressing new use cases like edge computing and machine learning. Sessions will feature user stories from the likes of JPMorgan Chase, Progressive Insurance, Target, Wells Fargo, and more, as well as the integration and use of projects like Kata Containers, Kubernetes, Istio, Ceph, ONAP, Ansible, and many others. </span></div><div id="magicdomid488" class="ace-line" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" class=""></div><div id="magicdomid489" class="ace-line" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif; font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span class="" style="margin: 0px; padding: 1px 0px; cursor: auto;">The schedule is organized by new tracks according to use cases: private & hybrid cloud, public cloud, container infrastructure, CI / CD, edge computing, HPC / GPUs / AI, and telecom / NFV.
