Hello Everyone, You might have heard that the OpenInfra Foundation is hosting its largest free virtual event of this year—OpenInfra Live: Keynote OpenInfra Live: Keynotes: https://openinfra.dev/live/keynotes Date and time: November 17-18 (1500-1700 UTC on each day) Register for free: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/openinfra-live-keynotes-tickets-169507530587 This two day special episode is your best opportunity to meet the newest players to the OpenInfra space and hear about how open source projects, such as OpenStack and Kubernetes, are supporting OpenInfra use cases like hybrid cloud. You will also have the chance to deep dive into the OpenStack user survey results since the launch of the OpenStack User Survey in 2013. Here is a preview of the OpenStack user survey results findings: - Over 300 OpenStack deployments were logged this year, including a significant number of new clouds—in the last 18 months, over 100 new OpenStack clouds have been built, growing the total number of cores under OpenStack management to more than 25,000,000. - Hybrid cloud scenarios continue to be popular, but over half of User Survey respondents indicated that the majority of their cloud infrastructure runs on OpenStack. Upgrades continue to be a challenge that the upstream community tackles with each additional release, but the User Survey shows the majority of organizations are running within the last seven releases. The full report of the OpenStack user survey will be distributed during the OpenInfra Live: Keynotes, so make sure you are registered for the event [2]. Can’t make it to the event? Register anyway, and we will email you a link to the recording after the event! At OpenInfra Live Keynotes, you will also have the opportunity to - interact with leaders of open source projects like OpenStack and Kubernetes to hear how the projects are supporting OpenInfra use cases like hybrid cloud - gain insight into public cloud economics and the role open source technologies play - celebrate as we announce this year’s Superuser Awards winner. This will be the one time everyone will be coming together this year. Come interact with the global OpenInfra community—Live! -Kendall Nelson (diablo_rojo) [1]: https://openinfra.dev/live/keynotes [2]: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/openinfra-live-keynotes-tickets-169507530587
