When it comes to the tooling needed to run OpenStack in production, there are lots of opinions and preferenes. But the big question is, does modern tooling helping or hurting the adoption of OpenStack in production?
This panel will dig into the emerging trends and best practices, looking at how the theory vs the reality of OpenStack cloud in production. We’ll also talk about whether or not (and how) OpenStack needs to respond to the world of microservices and containers.
If you’re following NFV, then you know that the biggest questions revolve around NFV use cases, feature completeness, and production readiness.
In this session, we’ll talk to NFV early adopters carrier/service providers, and learn more about NFV use cases,the benefits they are seeing, and their POC and production plans for different use cases.
We’ll talk about the network service agility vs the allure of cost advantages. Find out how what the OPNFV project is doing to define an open source reference architecture.
Learn more about what’s missing that is needed to drive NFV to wider adoption, and what differentiates POC use cases (like virtual firewall) from the more sophisticated production applications (like vEPC).
Finally, we’ll talk what’s happening in OpenStack that is accelerating NFV adoption, including changes in Nova and Neutron to accelerate performance of VNFs, including a word or two about containers and VNFs.
