Re: [Users] CfP: Virtualisation and IaaS DevRoom at FOSDEM'14

2013-11-20 Thread Dave Neary
Hi,

A reminder to everyone, we're getting close to the deadline! I would
love to see some dev/DevOps-focussed presentations about oVirt at the
conference. Again, I would love to see some oVirt users propose topics
about how the use, manage and deploy oVirt in real life circumstances.

Some ideas I think might get in, if you've done any of these and are
interested in presenting, let me know:

* Using Foreman/Puppet/Ansible/... with the oVirt APIs  CLI to
orchestrate  provision VMs on oVirt
* Using oVirt for VDI
* Migrating from vSphere to oVirt
* Using VDSM hooks and scripts to tweak VM lifecycle management
* Storage - how to add a new storage engine type to oVirt (using
libgfapi support as an example, perhaps?)

Thanks!
Dave.

 Call for Participation
 
 The scope for this devroom is open source, openly-developed projects in
 the areas of virtualisation and IaaS type clouds, ranging from low level
 to data center, up to cloud management platforms and cloud resource
 orchestration.
 
 Sessions should always target a developer audience. Bonus points for
 collaborative sessions that would be appealing to developers from
 multiple projects.
 
 We are particularly interested in the following themes:
 - low level virtualisation aspects
 - new features in classic and container-based virtualisation
   technologies
 - new use cases for virtualisation, such as virtualisation in mobile,
   automotive and embedded in general
 - other resource virtualisation technologies: networking, storage, …
 - deep technical dives into specific IaaS or virtualisation management
   projects features
 - relationship between IaaS projects and specific dependencies (not
   just virtualisation)
 - integration and development leveraging solutions from multiple
   projects
