Originally, the Group IT Operations team was responsible for managing infrastructure for the Volkswagen Group. The team operates central backend data centers, servers and core services for the Volkswagen Group - following a traditional Enterprise IT approach.
Then, in Q3/2015 the Volkswagen Group IT decided to go with OpenStack for their new internal private cloud project. And the Operations team had an additional task and a new challenge: Bring OpenStack into production and run it.
This was the day when the Group IT Cloud Operations team’s excellent adventure to the land of OpenStack and cloud began.
In this session the team will provide insight into the challenges it faced, the solutions it found, and the day to day issues it experiences with clashes between the classic IT world and the new cloud world.
- Get real life information and practical advice from an operations of a large organization and hear the success stories of the journey to cloud and OpenStack
- The challenges a traditional IT team may run into with all the shiny new things like DevOps, agile development, cloud paradigms and methodology
- Advice on how to cope with objections from traditional organizations and processes
- Lessons learned about changes and (self-) transformations needed to benefit from cloud technologies and methodologies
- Learn about a successful operational approach regarding OpenStack, the ecosystem around it, and the services & solutions a cloud consumer is interested in when using private IaaS & PaaS from an internal private cloud
