Meet at the Open Source Summit EMEA 2022

2022/09/11

As in person events are back again , I’m back as well to continue to promote FLOSS (Free/Libre/Open Source Software) when I’m selected as a speaker of course. And this was the case again for this new Open Source Summit session in Dublin next week.

This time I’ll be presenting a 101 Workshop on Demand session on Ansible with my peer Frédéric Passeron from the HPEDev team. Times being what they are, we didn’t get any budget to travel from HPE, so Frédéric will be remote and, as I couldn’t imagine to be remote for such interactive sessions, I made a request for support to the Linux Foundation for this travel, which was accepted, and I really want to thank them, as I think I’d have cancel otherwise. So as for Fosdem in 2019, I will be there as the president of the FLOSSITA association, instead of an HPE employee.

Our session will be wednesday, the 14th of september from 2:20PM to 3:55PM. I’ll be around if you want to meet and speak. See you there !

Presentations from the Redfish Workshop in Lyon

2019/11/20

You can find the presentations made for the Redfish Workshop I organized in Lyon after the last Open Source Summit on the Workshop page. You’ll find there an updated status of the standard (2019.3) made by Jeff Autor compared to the version delivered in San Diego. Also you’ll find the level of adoption of Redfish by the OpenBMC project. As well, there is an interesting use case shared by Julien Niedergang from SUSE that wasn’t presented in San Diego.

If you managed an event and want to integrate that workshop in it, don’t hesitate to contact me so we can replay it.

Also available, the last version of the Docker Hands-on Lab that I delivered yesterday.

The Redfish Workshop is at the end of this month in Lyon, France

2019/10/01

As announced earlier, at the end of this month, in Lyon, just after the 3 days dedicated to the Open Source Summit Europe, HPE and SUSE will host the 31st of october a reprise of the Redfish Workshop already organized during the Open Source Summit in San Diego in August.

It has also now been announced on the HPE Dev portal which should lead to more audience, especially as I can now announce that in addition to Jeff Autor, co-chair of the Redfish Forum, who will cover the lates news on the standard, you’ll also be lucky to hear from Gunnar Mills, who will talk about the new Redfish support added in OpenBMC 2.7 and the future 2.8 version. Full agenda should be published RSN !

And all that is free (as in beer) for you, as all costs are covered by HPE and SUSE, so at least if you can’t come, invite your friends to attend but it’s first come, first serve ! See you there.

Redfish Workshop at the Open Source Summit Europe 2019

2019/09/09

Not only will I be speaking at the upcoming Open Source Summit later in october, but I’m also coordinating a co-located event, the second Redfish Workshop !

A replay of the US Redfish Workshop will be held Thursday, October 31, 2019 | 9:00am – 5:00pm at the Lyon Convention Centre, the day after the Open Source Summit Europe 2019 ends.

Its primary aim is to show sysadmin, architects and developers how to use the Redfish standard in their environments to benefit from a standard management layer for their deployments, configuration and management of systems.

Our knowledgeable and engaging speakers will help you better understand topics like using DMTF tools for system configuration, using the REST API to perform Redfish operations from python, learning latest news on the standard and its future evolution, Through interactive sessions, demos and labs, you’ll have a chance to network and better understand and practice the concepts presented.

This is a free of charge event, sponsored by Hewlett Packard Enterprise and SUSE.

Who can benefit:

• System/Software Developers
• Tech Leads / Development Leads
• Software Architects
• Chief Engineers
• System Engineers
• Development Engineers
• DevOps / System Administrators

Meet at the Open Source Summit EMEA

2019/08/29

I’m very happy to have been selected once more for the upcoming Open Source Summit Europe in Lyon (YES for the first time in France !!) from the 28th to the 30st of October 2019.

I will only deliver there 1 session this year (which was well attended at the Open Source Summit in San Diego by 25 attendees) :

  • A hands-on lab on Docker which really explain what it means to containerize a web-based app.

And thanks to SUSE’s help, we (HPE) will be able again to replay the Redfish Workshop we gave as well in the Open Source Summit in San Diego. More details will be shared on this next week.

If you happen to be around, as usual feel free to come to my seessions and discuss with me of any topic you’d like, hopefully I’ll be able to bring some ideas in the discussion and make it enjoyable if not useful. So see you soon in Lyon !

2019/08/23

My work as a speaker is now over for the Open Source Summit San Diego.

You can find the presentations made for the Redfish Workshop I organized there on the Workshop page. If you want a summary, you can try to look at the presentation I made during the event which is now available on slideshare.

I’ve also been choosen as a speaker for OSS EMEA, so I’ll announce next week what I’ll do there (teasing ;-))

RHEL/CentOS users: help test MondoRescue

2019/08/20

Yes, like me the project is not dead ! I’ve been able to successfully backup/restore with the last MondoRescue test version I made for RHEL/CentOS 7. As this was a long standing issue I had with this, I’d like to see whether other users who have had issues with either 3.2.2 or the beta of 3.3. So please report on our mailing-list your findings with this (and share success, but also issues).

Even if other distros may still not fully work, I’ll publish that version if I don’t get too many negative feedback, if only to show there is still work on that project !

That should be early next week, when I’m back from the OSS NA 2019, where I’m presenting, and organizing tomorrow the first Redfish Workshop ! Don’t hesitate to come if you’re in San Diego, Room Sapphire P, 4th floor of the Hilton Bayfront.
