Open Stack

Hey all,

I (ok, we, Internap :-)) am willing to invest into making Heat templates, from a standalone Plone config, to a HA/multi-client Plone setup…
I can make it compatible with DreamCompute, since they use the same kind of network model than us, but I cant’ guarantee I would be able to make it work with any one else (since also I don’t have trial account there…)

Dear Fellow Cloud App Crafters,

The Plone conference (a popular Python CMS) has recently reached out to us (below) to do some training at their upcoming conference in Boston (the week before the OpenStack Barcelona Summit).

This size of the Plone community (250ppl in attendance) represents a focused and established market segment; which one of your companies is going to make a pretty penny in supporting their CMS application atop OpenStack.  Sing it with me: E-N-T-E-R-P-R-I-S-E.

Below are some options for engaging with this fellow Open Source Foundation.  I would really like to find a way to engage with them so as to have them listed as a flagship app on our app catalogue.

Accordingly:

Calling any and all ideas, especially for anyone on the USA East Coast for how we might engage?!

For example:

  *   Mirantis could show off how to deploy Plone with K8S/Murano
  *   RAX could show off how to deploy Plone with Carina
  *   Company XYZ could co-sponsor a booth with the Foundation.
  *   Lightning talks about how your company supports apps
  *   Community could do training on Shade/Oaktree, APIs, etc.
Lots of options here, let's figure out something cool to do for this ready and waiting cloud app community :)

@Victor may I request this be added to an agenda item for AppEco-WG?

Kind Regards,

Flanders

Hi David,

Could you please send us some information about the class you'd like to teach? In particular we need title, length (1/2 day, whole day, 2 day), a description, and any prerequisites/expertise required. Will it be hands on, should people bring laptops? As soon as we get this, we'll add an abbreviated description to the "teaser" training page (https://2016.ploneconf.org/training) with the full page description to follow in a couple of weeks.

One of our goals with the conference training classes is to make public all the training materials. We are hoping that will be OK with you?
I was also wondering if you'd be interested in giving a short (15 min) OpenStack demo during the conference proper? For example, I think you talked about a multi-Plone site OpenStack deployment targeted at universities - that's just the sort of thing it would be awesome to have a live demo of. (There will also be lightning talks and longer presentations if you'd like to propose one of those - see here: https://2016.ploneconf.org/talks.)
Finally, I was wondering if OpenStack would be interested in sponsoring the conference? I've attached a prospectus that describes the conference, the audience, and the sponsorship levels. Perhaps you could pass that on to the appropriate person?
Thank you *very* much, we are so excited about including an OpenStack training class!
Sally
