Whether you are a newbie to OpenStack looking at building your first cloud or an experienced operator with years of OpenStack success behind you, you've probably spent some time wondering what to expect from the OpenStack project over the next several releases. Will it finally support that new capability you've been waiting for? Should you plan for an upgrade in the next 6 months? While the development community is always working and planning new features, its takes a lot of time on IRC to get a complete view across the different projects. The OpenStack Product WG spent time this cycle working with the project teams and PTLs to understand their priorities for the next several OpenStack releases. Where we have always had an understanding of what's to come in the next release, we're hoping to present a long-term view of the future landscape of OpenStack. In this session, we'll present our findings across the different projects in an effort to give users a glimpse into the OpenStack roadmap
This presentation explores the latest release of OpenStack (OpenStack Mitaka) and shares highlights from the OpenStack Summit held April 25-29, 2016 in Austin, TX.
OpenStack is a free and open-source software platform for building and managing cloud computing platforms for public and private clouds, mostly deployed as an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS). The software platform consists of interrelated components that control hardware pools of processing, storage, and networking resources throughout a data center. OpenStack works with popular enterprise and open source technologies making it ideal for heterogeneous infrastructure.

Verizon's Beth Cohen explains the process of creating the OpenStack Architecture Guide, as delivered to the Boston OpenStack Meetup September 10, 2014.
Cloud computing and OpenStack basic introduction. This presentation was given on November 13, 2014 at Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya. Barcelona, Spain.
You’ve heard all of the hype, but how can SMACK work for you? In this all-star lineup, you will learn how to create a reactive, scaling, resilient and performant data processing powerhouse. Bringing Akka, Kafka and Mesos together provides a foundation to develop and operate an elastically scalable actor system. We will go through the basics of Akka, Kafka and Mesos and then deep dive into putting them together in an end2end (and back again) distrubuted transaction. Distributed transactions mean producers waiting for one or more of consumers to respond. We'll also go through automated ways to failure induce these systems (using LinkedIn Simoorg) and trace them from start to stop through each component (using Twitters Zipkin). Finally, you will see how Apache Cassandra and Spark can be combined to add the incredibly scaling storage and data analysis needed in fast data pipelines. With these technologies as a foundation, you have the assurance that scale is never a problem and uptime is default.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
