OpenStack Days Italy

28 September 2017, Coworking Login, Milano.

 ABOUT THE EVENT

OpenStack Days bring together hundreds of IT executives, cloud operators and technology providers to discuss cloud computing and learn about OpenStack.

The regional events are organized and hosted annually by local OpenStack user groups and companies in the ecosystem. It’s a great opportunity to hear directly from prominent OpenStack leaders, learn from user stories, network and get plugged into your local community.

Attendees will have the opportunity to hear real business cases from end-users, learn about new products, and participate in hands-on workshops, as well as a networking event for a less formal opportunity to engage with the community.
 

Schedule

  10:15 - 10:45

Openstack Operators Federation – the Alternative to Hyperscale Global Providers (Enter + Datacentred)

Federation talks mostly target academic issues. This talk, instead, provides a real-world scenario (and a demo) of how public cloud providers can join their forces to provide scalability and elasticity. Keystone allows potential competitors to be actually “coopetitors”, more flexible and agile than Public Cloud giants. As the old Romans said, “unity is strength”.
  10:15 - 10:45

Infrastructure as Code (Nuage)

Nowadays environments need a tighter integration of networking settings into applications. Wouldn’t it be beneficial to define all network and security requirements inside the application definition through a human readable format? And what if the application spans VMs, Containers and Bare metals? The talk is about networking in OpenStack heterogeneous environments including VMs and K8S containers, plus a demo.
  10.45 - 11.15

Containers on OpenStack: an introduction (Binario Etico)

Containers are a complement to existing infrastructure technologies. As they matures, OpenStack ensures that Container Orchestration Engines work fine within itself, with no need for a separate container-only infrastructure. We’ll see how this is guaranteed both to operators and users and look at how Rancher platform makes it easier and comprehensive.
  10.45 - 11.15

Open Networking based Overlay solution for Openstack Cloud (Mellanox)

The talk is about how Openstack and SDN has thrived on Open Networking phenomena, where customers can select the white box, select the type of OS best suited to them and how this has resulted in unprecedented programmability, automation, and network control, enabling them to build highly scalable, flexible networks that readily adapt to changing business needs.
  11:30 - 12:00

Transformation: from a vertical skill to a structured knowledge for proven abilities – in a continuous stream of updates and enhancement – thanks to OpenStack training and certifications. (EXTRAORDY)

The talk is about Official Red Hat OpenStack training path by EXTRAORDY – la formazione ufficiale Red Hat, which aims at developing the skills needed to troubleshoot and manage the lifecycle of a OpenStack private cloud, including the coverage of SDS – Ceph, SDN – Neutron, live migration, image customization, and object storage with Swift.
  11:30 - 12:00

Securing Secrets throughout the DevOps Pipeline (Cyberark)

Secrets embedded in app code pose an enormous risk. Cyberark’s secret management solution helps IT and information security organizations secure and manage secrets used by machines identities (applications, microservices, applications, CI/CD tools, APIs, etc.) and users throughout the DevOps pipeline.
  12:00 - 12:30

Intent driven Security for Cloud environments (Juniper)

Developers and cloud operators need to define security policies from an application-centric view. This should be independent of the way application components are distributed (private or public cloud), or the nature of these components (VMs, containers, containers-on-VMs, or bare metal servers). Intent-based security enables a zero-trust networking model that is easy to use and universal.
  12:30 - 13:00

Orchestration of workload on a Fog/Edge architecture based on OpenStack and Kubernetes (FBK)

A deep transformation is ongoing in Cloud Computing, driven by containerization and IoT: lightweight infrastructure and distributed services. From centralized data centers, it can get closer to users and data sources, thus embracing the Fog/Edge Computing paradigm. The talk presents a Fog/Edge architecture based on OpenStack and Docker/Kubernetes. A demo will end the presentation.
  15:30 - 16:00

Upgrading OpenStack from Kilo to Mitaka (where is Liberty???) (Fastweb)

The talk describes the upgrade of an OpenStack infrastructure and how virtualization of network and compute elements can help you to orchestrate all the upgrade process, minimizing the downtime for all running applications. Automating it with Ansible playbooks or similar tools is helping us to handle odd cases depending on the specific target infrastructure.
  15:30 - 16:00

Multi-Cloud in Saipem

The talk is about OpenStack coexisting aside traditional VMWare virtualization solutions. Our multi-cloud approach integrates both on-premise and public clouding through a provisioning portal. A particular emphasis will be given to the technologies used in the portal and on the technological differences between OpenStack and VMWare emerged during the development of such a tool.
  16:15 - 16:45

Managing WSO2 dockerized applications on OpenStack (Binario Etico + Sensei)

In this talk we present the experience of two companies, one dealing with application development, the other with IT infrastructure automation, which profitably joined their skills. They made a complex application run on containers and manage those containers on OpenStack through Kubernetes. We’ll present the case study and show a demo of how it works.
  16:45 - 17:15

Declarative Modeling for Building a Cloud Federation and Cloud Applications (Garr)

The talk presents a federated cloud platform dedicated to the Italian research community, deployed using a declarative modeling tool. It describes the architectural choices, how OpenStack can accomodate the needs of a federation of multiple independent organizations, resource allocation can be controlled according to committed plans and how to handle accounting and billing of resources.
  17:15 - 17:45

OpenStack Day 2: stay on top of your data with Monasca (Fujitsu)

With its comprehensive feature range, Monasca is the optimal Monitoring-as-a-Service solution for data centre operators and cloud customers. Monasca adds further security management using logs, life cycle of alarms & cap management whilst the integration of the OpenStack Event Queue in Monasca offers added monitoring possibilities for system ops and users about the OpenStack components.
  17:15 - 17:45

Racing with OpenStack (Garl)

The talk shows how OpenStack supported at a car racing event. In detail, it will show how cams were managed cams, live streaming of the event, live analytics of the drivers, automatic post production and stream after the event itself. Details will be provided on the OpenStack architecture.
  10:15 - 10:45
