OpenStack Upgrades Strategy: The Fast Forward Upgrade

At the OpenStack Sydney Summit, we presented OpenStack Upgrade Strategies and how upgrades have evolved with each release. During this presentation, we share new alternatives to the traditional single jump upgrade. Fast Forward Upgrades provide the solution to the disruption of keeping up with upgrades twice a year. This option allows you to upgrade in-place and cleverly moving past three releases. There’s a demo, too!

The goal is to walk out with a clear understanding of all the options for OpenStack upgrades, the pros and cons of different upgrade strategies, and maybe deciding which path to take during your next upgrade.
