Hi all, Some of you may have already seen this announcement earlier this week, but just in case… we’ve mentioned in the last couple of calls the idea of doing an in-person workshop, and indeed, it is happening on August 30 in the Bay Area.
At a high-level, it is focused on our most active software projects, with the morning having an overview of all of them and the afternoon having separate breakouts to allow you to dive into hands-on activities to get familiar with how to use them. If you and others at your companies have wanted to start using OCP software but just haven’t known where to start, this is the perfect workshop for you. The workshop will be a great way for you to get hands-on learning as well as to connect with leaders and other members interested in these projects. We especially encourage operators to attend who have been interested in exploring the use of open source networking software and disaggregated networking in their own deployments. Please forward the invite! Big thanks to Flex for hosting, to the network software leads for developing the sessions (Xin, Curt, Jeff, Rajat), and to OCP staff for helping coordinate the logistics of the day. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ocp-networking-workshop-hosted-by-flex-tickets-48465295002 Hope to see lots of you there! Omar and Scott From the Eventbrite invite: When: Thu, August 30, 2018, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM PDT Where: Flex Customer Experience Center, 847 Gibraltar Drive, Milpitas, CA 95035 Overview: The workshop will feature overviews and hands-on activities with the networking software subprojects. This will include: Open Network Install Environment (ONIE), Open Networking Linux (ONL), Switch Abstraction Interface (SAI), Software Networking in the Cloud (SONiC), and Campus Branch Wireless (CBW). If you’ve been looking for a way to get started with these projects and their code, this workshop will be a great way for you to get hands-on learning as well as to connect with leaders and other members interested in these projects. We especially encourage operators to attend who have been interested in exploring the use of open source networking software and disaggregated networking in their own deployments. Our gracious host Flex will give us a personalized tour of their facility, and you will hear more about their products and their work with OCP. The overwhelming demand from our community has encouraged us to expand the time to accommodate all the agenda items.
