Today is the third day of the OpenStack Summit with some significant presentations from various members of the community:

  • Reinhardt Quelle, Operations Architect, Cisco WebEx presented a Customer Case Study on how WebEx was able to successfully traverse the implementation path and is currently on-boarding a number of production workloads onto its OpenStack cloud. In this talk, WebEx will share more about the project, rationale behind choosing OpenStack, some of the key road-blocks on the path to production and touch upon the future roadmap.
