This presentation was originally presented at Cloud Connect 2012 - Chicago ------ Building a large-scale OpenStack public cloud is no easy task. Even harder, how to do you keep it up to date with a rapidly growing community with hundreds of lines of code added daily? Come hear Rackspace Developer Advocate Wayne Walls discuss the importance of staying agile while maintaining a public cloud comprising of thousands of users. He will discuss open API integration into the business, continuous integration, and other practices that will allow your organization to roll to production faster.
