In the cloud native era we are constantly looking into expanding our network. SMBs are looking to get workloads running on private cloud to have seamless connectivity to workloads running on public clouds. Telcos are looking to add compute resources to the edge and extend their network from the core to the edge. In this session we will discuss use cases that are challenging our networks and what open source tools we are using to meet these challenges.

7. OPEN HYBRID CLOUD
Open hybrid cloud is the vision of the IT architecture of tomorrow, where
applications coexist and can move seamlessly across a hybrid environment of
cloud footprints.
Including private cloud, multiple public clouds and the edge.
