Presentation given at OSCON 2015 Open Cloud Day on 7/21/2015 For open source projects such as OpenStack, being able to effectively build, release, and deploy upstream code into a production environment is as much art as science. Using the experience gained from more than three years in OpenStack operations, we will share best practices and tools to create a sustainable and repeatable release engineering process for your own open source development needs. http://www.oscon.com/open-source-2015/public/schedule/detail/44790
