Sessions at Open Source Bridge 2011 about Cloud and Open Source on Wednesday 22nd June

In this session you'll see how open source is the cutting edge of Cloud. I'll show you Open Stack: a collection of open source technologies to deliver a cloud operating system. OpenStack has developed two interrelated projects: OpenStack Compute and OpenStack Object Storage.

• OpenStack Compute provisions and manages large groups of virtual private servers, and
• OpenStack Object Storage creates redundant, scalable object storage.

In this session I'll demonstrate:

• The components of Open Stack Compute and Storage
• Open Stack architecture and security, and
• How to use it including a Puppet-driven demonstration of installing Open Stack, building a web tier cloud and installing an application during the session.

In conjunction with the session the tools, Puppet code and documentation used to create the cloud will be available under a GPLv2 license.
