My week at linux.conf.au 2013

Posted on Mon 28 January 2013 in blog • 1 min read

linux.conf.au 2013 has kicked off this morning, and here is a brief preview of my talks and related activities this week.

This afternoon, as part of the Cloud, Distributed Storage and High Availability miniconf, I am moderating the Grand Distributed Storage Debate. In this debate, we’ll have Sage Weil (for Ceph) and John Mark Walker (for GlusterFS) go head-to-head about the merits of their respective projects.

On Tuesday, during the OpenStack miniconf, I’m doing a talk on integrating Ceph with OpenStack.

Finally, on Friday afternoon, Tim Serong and I are scheduled to do a full hands-on Ceph tutorial. Watch this space, we’ll announce where to download your VM images no later than Wednesday (as soon as we’ve figured out just where in the conference network we can upload it).
