WITH PAUL ANGUS

 Everyone has agreed - No one will talk about Brexit or President Trump this
week
 In an effort to keep up with the times, the CloudStack UI in 4.14 will include
‘Emoji’ in the language translations. VMStarted: 👍 error: 🤕 deployVM: 🤞
 The special guests are only here because I told them Celine Dion had extended
her residency in Las Vegas and would come on stage with them and perform a
song about CloudStack

“CloudStack – its what people do after they’ve tried
running OpenStack”
Honest to goodness quote from 3rd party
vendor at CCCNA in Montreal 2018
Out Of The Shadows (in a good way)

#CloudStackWorks
• CloudStack does what it says on the tin
• Makes no false promises
• Has proven longevity
• Backed by a real, passionate community

#CloudStackWorks
And we have a certificate to
prove it…

The recognition was for:
• Willingness to recommend the brand to
colleagues
• Trustworthiness
• Reliability
• Fulfilment of service promise
• Continuous improvement
• Security
“Nationwide survey of 10,000 professional users
of software and software service providers”

#CloudStackWorks
… Because its backed by a real, passionate
community
That’s us

But I would say that ^^^ so…
I asked some CloudStack users to tell their stories.

MAURICE NETTESHEIM

flexible and robust.
We would like to thank the Apache CloudStack community for
their continued development of this great technology, and we
ourselves will continue to contribute”

The Apache Way

"The mission of the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) is to
provide software for the public good.
We do this by providing services and support for many like-
minded software project communities consisting of
individuals who choose to participate in ASF activities."
The Apache Way

The Apache Way
nb. Its possible that these are not the exact words in the Apache bylaws
Photograph: DEG

"Provide Software for the Public Good"
• We produce software that is non-excludable and non-
rivalrous
• Use of the software in any context does not reduce its
availability to others
• Users and contributors have no committed responsibility to
the foundation, our projects or our communities
• Use of a license that conforms to the Open Source Definition
is necessary but not sufficient to deliver on our mission
The Apache Way

"Provide Software for the Public Good"
• Used in Universities and research institutions
• Providers to Schools
• Indirectly via CloudStack powered public cloud providers
• Even ‘Corporate Organisations’ are providing services to
someone, AND every time we make CloudStack better, we’re
making the lives of those operating those installs easier.
The Apache Way

• Community of Peers
• Open Communications
• Consensus Decision Making
• Community Over Code
The Apache Way

With great power comes great responsibility
The Apache Way
Be excellent to each other
