SUSE in the Spotlight at the Paris OpenStack Summit

The OpenStack universe will be expanding to the City of Lights from November 3^rd – November 7^th for the OpenStack Kilo Summit. It is a great time for those interested in OpenStack to learn about the latest features in the most recent OpenStack Juno release, hear how the OpenStack vendor ecosystem is integrating with OpenStack to add capabilities for enterprise deployments and help design the future of OpenStack.

As always, SUSE will be at the summit with experts providing OpenStack wisdom with presentations and demonstrations.  Our engineers will be there pushing the OpenStack project forward.  And without a doubt, we will be having fun giving away green gifts and prizes.

In addition, SUSE will be showcasing the breadth of enterprise solutions delivered by our OpenStack partners all week long in our booth (C5).  We have invited twenty of our close friends in the OpenStack ecosystem to the SUSE OpenStack Partner Theater to provide insight on how to get the most out of an enterprise OpenStack cloud deployment.
