Bringing a third partner to a two partner OpenStack solution is always a challenge. When Dell realized a need to extend the Dell Red Hat OpenStack Cloud Solution to bring in a “highly available overlay network provider", they turned to Midokura Enterprise MidoNet. How did Dell and Red Hat then bring Midokura to the table, encouraging all the different teams to work towards one single goal, to produce a “joint multi-partner solution" and deliver the solution in a timely fashion?
Cross-functional teams are the new norm when building OpenStack solutions, be it Enterprise IT deployment strategists or best-of-breed solution providers. We will hear the perspectives seen from each team on how they responded to this task and what they saw as challenges.
This will be an interactive session and we will ask those in the audience to relate their experiences. Bring your tiger team stories and let's learn how everyone can build better solutions to leverage the unique skill sets of each contributor!
Attendees will be given a chance to see into how our three companies came together to produce an OpenStack Solution and then we will have an opportunity to turn to the floor for audience experiences in what they have used to be successful in aligning their corporate goals to others.
