New Whiteboard Videos - SDN, OpenStack, CloudStack, OpenSource
Following the whiteboard videos we made at CloudOpen, we got inspired to make a new set of whiteboard videos that covered some topics that we hadn't discussed before or needed to be updated. We also decided to include Aaron Delp (@aarondelp) in the videos this time. All of The Cloudcast whiteboard videos can be found on our YouTube Channel. Any suggestions for new topics are always welcomed.
Aaron kicks off the first couple videos by reviewing the architecture of both Apache Cloudstack (Citrix CloudPlatform) and OpenStack "Havana" (which we covered quite a bit lately - here, here, here).

New Whiteboard Videos - Saltstack, Swift, OpenDaylight, OpenStack, VMware
It's been several months since we've updated The Cloudcast's YouTube Channel. We apologize for the lack of updates. We're planning to create a new set of whiteboard videos later this week, but in the interim, we wanted to shared four new videos that were created last week at LinuxCon and CloudOpen.
Thomas Hatch (Creator of SaltStack) - SaltStack Architecture
John Dickinson (PTL for Project Swift; Swiftstack) - Swift Architecture

The Cloudcast - #96 - Swift - More than OpenStack
Links
- SwiftStack - http://www.swiftstack.com/
- SwiftStack YouTube Channel - http://www.youtube.com/user/SwiftStackVideos
Topic 1 – Joe, who are you? You’ve been at CloudScaling & Engine Yard prior to your current gig at SwiftStack. Author of a book on Swift.
Topic 2 - (Everything is Open and a Stack in the name, run us through some basics of terminology) Project vs. Product has come up a lot recently. Tell me about Swift 1.9 as a project first (Global Clusters). Private Cloud Storage as a product and just an OpenStack project?
Topic 3 – Object vs. File or Block? Start at the lowest level, what kind of hardware? What kind of software protections? Discuss the ring vs. controller. Geo-disbursement. Scale out by de-coupling the controller from the actual storage nodes (SAN dual-head analogy). How does it compare to others (i.e. Gluster, Ceph, Basho, etc.) & what makes it unique?
Topic 4 – Storage Efficiency? Deduplication? Actual Storage Algorithms? Governance? Compliance?
Topic 5 - Use Cases? Performance? When is it a good fit? When is it a bad fit?

The Cloudcast - #94 - OpenStack Turns Three
Links
- OpenStack Foundation - http://www.openstack.org/foundation/
- RackSpace Unlocked.io RoadShow - http://unlocked.io/#home
Topic 1 – Mark, tell us a little bit about your role in the Foundation and also about the greater foundation as an entity as well. Wayne, you don’t work for the RackSpace Hybrid Cloud Team, what is your role and how is it different?
Topic 2 - Mark, we’ve probably all heard a good bit about OpenStack as a product and it is constantly evolving as we lead up to the Havana release. Tonight is the “official” 3rd Birthday party here at OSCON. How has the Foundation grown over the years and how has it evolved? How did you manage the explosive growth?
Topic 3 – Project vs. Product vs. Service vs. Service Provider confusion- (I’m talking project today) Your take? What would you say are the keys to the success of the project?
Topic 4 – Do Again? Not Do Again? Hong Kong for next Summit?
Topic 5 - Wayne, you are doing something cool, this unlocked.io roadshow program. I took a look at the slides and this isn’t about pushing a product, this feels like more of an education on devops and cloud era application and workload development

- Tech Editor - Managing VMware Infrastructure with Windows PowerShell
Topic 1 – Let’s start with your background, how you got so involved with the VMware world and how it’s recently transitioned to being OpenStack centric.
Topic 2 - Technically (and religiously), VMware and OpenStack are very different. How did you go about making the transition? Many of our listeners are trying to figure out where the start, what to learn, etc.
Topic 3 – What is vBrownbag and how has it evolved (globally) from VMware-centric to adding the OpenStack elements? How has the transition gone and any insight into how it’s going worldwide?
Topic 4 – Talk about the OpenStack book you’ve been writing, and how that process (community-based, intense week of group writing) has been different than other books you’ve written.

Topic 5 - Where was your head at and what products did you look at? What use cases? How hard does your large environment push products? What were the barriers to entry?
Topic 6 – How do you keep up with cloud computing and still do your day job? Why did you chose CloudStack for your cloud?
