Bringing OpenStack into an existing enterprise environment requires careful planning to be successful. While it would be nice to have all your internal developers, external vendors, and government regulators migrate (yesterday!) to the distributed architecture that makes cloud so powerful, the reality is that we're still running code from the 1960's in demanding production environments (hello, mainframe!) and it's reasonable to expect that there are still years, if not decades, left dealing with traditional, monolithic, vertically-scaling workloads. This session will discuss how you can successfully integrate your upcoming OpenStack deployment into the stuff you already have, maximizing the benefits (automation! self-service! scalability!) while mitigating the risk of changing too much too soon. Topics will include Active Directory, DR, integrating with Windows, migrating workloads to the cloud, patch management strategies, and more.
This session should provide a framework for attendees to be able to carry back to their teams, ready to more confidently plan a successful OpenStack implementation. They will learn methodologies for accomplishing some of the traditional enterprise IT and Operations tasks in conjunction with their shiny new cloud, and will have identified specific questions they will need to answer for themselves in order to be successful.
