Open Stack

They’re still doing unconference sessions, or at least they did in Hong Kong.  The trick is to sign up very early, because the unconference sessions get taken quickly.  Sorry that I can’t make it this time, but I hope that you’re able to snag a room.

I've not attended personally in recent years (was sending Lorin Hochstein instead), so not sure if the design summit has outgrown that informal setup.

The goal would be to share deployment and operational experiences for using OpenStack in an HPC setting.  This might be bare metal, hybrid (HPC backend with cloud login front-ends), or pure virtualized HPC.

>     Prakashan Korambath ppk at ucla.edu :  I am specifically interested in learning about the IB SR-IOV implementation.  I know people have done it, but if somebody has experience with it please give us a presentation.  Also, if you guys can share your neutron network configuration set up that would be great as well. Heat orchestration to deploy a small cluster will be of interest to me as well.    If  you are using Chef or Puppet to maintain your set up please give a presentation as well.  Thanks.   
> Mehdi Denou - mehdi.denou at gmail.com : I will not be present but I hope the presentation (at least pdf or anything else) will be available after the conference :) thanks.
> Scott McMillan - Intel - scott.a.mcmillan at intel.com : +1 to bare metal related topics
> Tim Bell - CERN - tim.bell at cern.ch 
> Theodore Omtzigt - theo at stillwater-sc.com: I am interested in HPC application orchestration and integration with OpenStack. In particular, VM affinity control of MPMD style MPI programs, but also the use of Linux containers and Docker style environments for hardware accelerated infrastructures.
> Stephen Gordon - sgordon at redhat.com: Interested in understanding how HPC users are using OpenStack today and the kind of gaps that they would like to see filled in the future. Particularly interested in NUMA awareness and SR-IOV.
