Introduction to OpenStack by Rich Bowen, Apache Software Foundation

Introduction to OpenStack – Rich Bowen, Apache Software Foundation

You’ve heard about OpenStack for several years now, and you know it has something to do with Cloud, but what is it, and how does it fit together? In this talk, Rich, the OpenStack Community Liaison at Red Hat, will walk you through what OpenStack is, as a project, as a Foundation, and as a community of organizations. We’ll talk about the various subprojects that make up the stack, and how they talk to one another. We’ll cover the foundation and the various companies that are part of the ecosystem. And we’ll talk some about how you can get involved in the project.
