Hey David,

We would (Internap) be delighted to help : https://www.openstack.org/marketplace/public-clouds/internap%20/agilecloud
Or (maybe, not sure you would need a bare metal for it, maybe for the more advanced course?) : https://www.openstack.org/marketplace/public-clouds/internap%20/agileserver

What do you need exactly ? How many instances / server would you need ?

Speaking of which, Marcela, I know I’m not in the App working group Monday meeting these days (the meeting is scheduled exactly the time and date I’m training with my coach ! :(), but I was a bit left off to see you didn’t include us in your cloud comparison :very sad panda:
I know it’s kinda too late, but if you need help setting anything up, or if we can just meet at the summit to discuss what was wrong / could be improved to be included next time, I would be delighted to help !

David, let me know how/when/where you want to arrange what you need

Subject: [User-committee] [AppDev] HALP! Request for Cloud to use during AppDev Training in Austin

Dear OpenStack Cloud Providers [User-Committee WGs please help pass this along to any contacts],

Yes I'm looking at anyone who has a Cloud listed on the Marketplace:

https://www.openstack.org/marketplace/

We are looking to run a (beta) 90 minute training session in the form of "cloud code dojos" in Austin.

You ask: "what is a cloud code dojo?"

Well, I'm glad you asked, see:

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/cloud-code-dojo-training-proposal

In summary, "Cloud Dojos" are forums for practising repetitive manoeuvres (like API calls, SDK commands lines and/or martial art moves ;-).  They looks something like this:

[cid:ii_immpmsyp0_153e3e6eeb1b7c3f]
​
We would hope to have 2-5 "cloud code dojos" running in parallel at the Austin Summit (more at future summits):

[cid:ii_immpns101_153e3e7a131596f1]
In short, the above format will allow for parallel trainings activities, like:

  *   "White Belt (novice): Create a cloud App image which user can access on the Web (public IP)" see example dojo challenge here: https://github.com/DFFlanders/AppDev-Training-Challenges-OpenStack/blob/master/image-flavor-problem-set.md
  *   "Yellow Belt (intermediate): using SWIFT API calls to attach to cloud native containers"
  *   "Black Belt (advanced): etc.

We'll run this first "Cloud Code Dojo Training Forum" as a trial [alpha] activity and seek feedback accordingly.  We hope to learn from all of you so we can refine and take into account all the different AppDev audiences PoVs from: cloud native to enterprise AppDev to ISV legacy Apps to varying ProgLang SDK Apps to DevOpps who want to do more AppDev stuff, etc.

Naturally, there is lots to explore in this space, but in the first case we need to borrow (and promote) some clouds for this training.  We would only need 5 cloud accounts as the code dojo format is designed to keep people participating.

Or to request in LoLCat:

I can haz cloud 4 skillz training plz?

^^ this cat attended cloud code dojo - obrigado 🙇

Greatly appreciated for any considerations.

Kind Regards,

Flanders
