OpenStack Foundation Sets 2020 Event Agenda to Advance Open Collaboration, Solve Technical Challenges in Automation, Large-Scale Ops and Containers in Production
February 5, 2020
The OpenStack Foundation has opened registration for its next community event, OpenDev + PTG, to be held June 8-11, 2020, at the Vancouver Convention Center in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. OpenDev + PTG is a new collaborative event gathering developers, system architects and operators to address common open source infrastructure challenges.
OpenDev Programming at the Event
The OpenDev portion will include discussion-oriented sessions focused on exploration of specific problems that share common architectures, with the goal of collaborating around potential community-driven solutions. This OpenDev event will be organized around tracks spanning open source projects and communities, including Airship, Ansible, Ceph, Kata Containers, Kubernetes, OpenStack, StarlingX, and Zuul.
Tracks at the OpenDev event include:
- Hardware Automation
- Large-scale Usage of Open Source Infrastructure Software
- Containers in Production
- Key Challenges for Open Source
PTG Programming at the Event
The Project Teams Gathering (PTG) portion will leverage the output of the
OpenDev event, exploring specific software enhancements and integration points
that can equip these projects with capabilities to enable the solutions
developed in OpenDev. Participants in the PTG will be upstream contributors and
leaders of a diversity of open infrastructure projects, both within the
OpenStack Foundation community and beyond. Practices will be explored by
project teams, SIGs and other working groups that will be provided dedicated
space to get work done and maximize the efficiency of the time they spend in
Vancouver.
2020 Open Infrastructure Summit
The next Open Infrastructure Summit (formerly the OpenStack Summit) will take
place October 19-23 at the bcc Berlin Congress Center in Berlin, Germany. The
global event will bring community leaders and speakers from around the world
and will provide an important opportunity for developers worldwide-and
especially in Europe-to collaborate in person with developers from the global
community. The Summit will also feature a PTG event to plan the next release of
OpenStack as well as other open infrastructure projects.
The Open Infrastructure Summit brings together influential business decision makers, infrastructure architects and open source developers from around the world and across more than 30 different open source communities. Professionals from many industries, including financial services, government, manufacturing, telecom and IT, rely on open infrastructure to run their business, and the Summit is where they collaborate.
