With technologies around Open Software-defined Storage emerging as the way to get things done in the cloud, we’ve noticed strong interest in how to take advantage of this emerging software space. Storage is changing from the proprietary, expensive box in the corner to a set of APIs and open source software deployed in a scale-out way on your infrastructure. Storage services are now an integrated part of your scale-out applications.
To accelerate this momentum, we thought it would be fun to have a storage hackathon at the OpenStack Summit to encourage developers to dive into this brave new world.
We’re starting at 1pm on May 11, and we’ll be hacking into the night until 8 or whenever folks get tired. After that, Red Hat will sponsor drinks at a local watering hole.
Experts will be on hand to help new hackers find their way. Come by, learn, collaborate, and write some apps.
