Is OpenStack Still Needed in 2022? - Thierry Carrez, Open Infrastructure Foundation
Over the past 10 years, OpenStack has become the de-facto standard for providing cloud infrastructure using open source solutions. But in the past 5 years, the ecosystem focus has shifted higher in the stack onto cloud-native solutions, which run on top of an existing cloud infrastructure. Does that mean that open source cloud infrastructure solutions, like OpenStack, are no longer relevant? In this talk, Thierry Carrez, the General Manager for the Open infrastructure Foundation, the non-profit hosting the OpenStack project, will explore this question. After examining the motivation and history of OpenStack over the past decade, we will explore what makes OpenStack relevant in the next decade, with a special attention to the European context. While it is not for everyone, new use cases like Digital Sovereignty or Edge computing are driving renewed adoption of OpenStack, especially in combination with Kubernetes (what is called the Linux OpenStack Kubernetes Infrastructure, or LOKI).
