MySQL and Openstack deep dive, 14 April 11:30AM – 12:20PM @ Room 204

Peter Boros, Principal Architect, Percona

Most folks know that there are a number of different flavors of MySQL — standard MySQL, MariaDb, Percona XtraDb, MySQL Galera, Percona XtraDb Cluster, etc. In this talk, we hope to dispel some of these myths and give some clear information on what are the strengths and weaknesses of each of these flavors, what pitfalls to avoid when migrating between them, and what architectural information to take into account when planning your OpenStack MySQL database deployments. We will discuss replication topologies and techniques, and explain how the Galera Cluster variants differ from standard MySQL replication.

Deploying a OpenStack Cloud at Scale at Time Warner Cable, 14 April 1:20PM – 2:10PM @ Room 203

Matthew Fisher, Principle Software Engineer, Time Warner Cable

Time Warner Cable has been designing, building, and operating an OpenStack cloud. Over the past 18 months, we’ve grown the team and tripled our original deployment as we’ve offered more capacity and services to internal customers. During this time we made some good decisions, but also some mistakes. We’d like to share the journey, good and bad, and show you what parts of the process you should focus on for your stand-up. Our talk will cover technologies and best practices used when deploying an OpenStack cluster to production, ranging from infrastructure tools like (Ansible, Puppet, git, Jenkins, Gerrit) to tools needed to run and monitor a production system (MySQL/Galera, rabbitmq, Icinga, Monasca)
