How Walmart is Building a Successful Open Source Culture

Walmart started its OpenStack journey with our eCommerce site.  Open source is a priority in our approach to new development and embracing new solutions.  We want to share our journey as we continue to build a successful open source culture, making it a focused and integral part of our day to day planning, operation and execution.  We will explore our successes and failures as we continue to grow our community involvement and participation.


What can I expect to learn?

Walmart wants to show users what has and has not worked for us on our journey to change our culture to embrace innovation and out of the box thinking.
