ABOUT THE OPENINFRA SUMMIT SUBMISSION AND SELECTION PROCESS

On average, the OpenInfra Foundation receives more than 1,000 submissions for
the OpenInfra Summit, previously known as the OpenStack Summit. Of those, we are
only able to select 25-30% for participation. To decide which talks are
accepted, we rely on a Programming Committee.

The OpenInfra Summit is organized around Tracks, which are focused on specific
problem domains in Open Infrastructure, such as '5G, NFV & Edge', 'CI/CD', or
'Private & Hybrid Cloud'. Presentations for each Track are determined by a
Programming Committee for each track, which is made up of 3-5 members. The
Foundation selects the Programming Committee members from a list of people
nominated by the community. The Foundation strives to recruit Programming
Committee members from a diverse set of companies, regions and roles across
communities (i.e., contributing developers, users and business leaders). To
nominate someone (or yourself) for the Summit Programming Committee for a
specific Track, please fill out the nomination form.

The Foundation will also extend invitations directly to a small number of highly
regarded speakers from past events for each Track, and we expect this content to
make up less than 15% of total Summit presentations.

Programming Committee members will receive their presentations to review and
will determine the final selections for their respective Tracks. Programming
Committee members are expected to exercise judgment in their area of expertise
and help ensure diversity of sessions and speakers. Real-world user stories and
technical, in-the-trenches experiences are favored over sales pitches.

After the Programming Committee makes their decisions, speakers will be informed
by mid-March 2022. If you are selected as a speaker (or alternate speaker), you
will receive a free code to register for the Summit, as well as a set of
deadlines and deliverables leading up to the event.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please note that this process covers the speaking sessions during the Summit,
NOT the Forum (that selection process happens later).

Want to provide feedback on this process? Join the discussion on the OpenInfra
Foundation mailing list, and/or contact the Foundation Summit Team directly
summit@openinfra.dev.

SUMMIT TRACKS


THE SUMMIT

The OpenInfra Summit includes keynotes, presentations, panels, hands-on
workshops, and collaborative working sessions covering over 30 open source
projects. Expect to hear about the intersection of many open source
infrastructure projects, including Ceph, Kubernetes, Magma, ONAP, OPNFV and the
projects hosted by the OpenInfra Foundation: Airship, Kata Containers, OpenInfra
Labs, OpenStack, StarlingX, and Zuul.

5G, NFV & Edge
Topics include: 5G, cloudlet, distributed computing, economics, Mesh, security,
networking, architecture, ease of deployment, edge ecosystem, hardware
performance accelerators (e.g. GPUs, ASICs, etc.), hardware profile, IoT, low
end-to-end latency, management tools, scaling, edge-enabled applications,
physical hardening, QoS, remote/extreme environments, remote troubleshooting,
standalone cloudlets, tamper evidence, tamper resistance, VM and container
handoff across WAN connections, zero-touch provisioning, QoS, SDN, SLAs,
standardization e.g. ETSI NFV

AI, Machine Learning, HPC
Topics include: AI, computation, cluster, economics, exascale, government, GPUs,
grid, HPC, HTC, machine learning, New applications for AI running on OpenStack

networking, container storage, container security, hybrid VM & container
architectures, containers & bare metal

Getting Started
Beginner-level track to learn the basics about all open infrastructure-related
topics.

Hands-on Workshops
Hands-on Workshops offer a window into training for operators and application
developers across different projects. Sessions are typically 90 minutes and
require an RSVP and some prep work. Bring your laptop and walk away with the
skills you need to become an open source contributor.

NEW: Hardware Enablement
Topics include: Software components needed to enable hardware in cloud or edge
environments, GPUS, DPUs, FPGAs, sustainability, data center operations,

Topics include: the 4 opens, the future of free and open source software,
challenges of open collaboration, open development best practices and tools,
open source governance models, diversity and inclusion, mentoring and outreach,
community management.

Private & Hybrid Cloud
Topics include: architecture, bare metal, economics, hardware, operations,
orchestration & hybrid cloud tools, networking, organizational culture &
processes, security & compliance, SLAs, storage, upgrades, user experience,
vendor selection

Public Cloud
Topics include: architecture / hardware, economics, cloud portability, features
& needs, federation, hardware, operations / upgrades, multi-tenants, networking,
performance, scale, security & compliance, SLAs, storage, open source platforms,
