[rdo-list] Feedback/Notes from OpenStack India mini conference at OpenSource India Day, 2017 Bangalore

Hello, Janki and I presented two talks at OpenStack India mini-conference at OpenSource India Day, 2017 Bangalore on 14th Oct 2017 [https://opensourceindia.in/osidays/open-source-india-2017/]. The overall conference was good, the audience was interesting. I spoke about RDO and Janki spoke about OpenDaylight's role in OpenStack. Link to slides is below. * Delivering a bleeding edge community-led open stack distribution- RDO : https://www.slideshare.net/ChandanKumar612/delivering-a-bleeding-edge-com... * OpenDaylight - Bringing SDN to OpenStack - https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1mPfvW0dHInMp3SQde6YlJWAlFnn_YhjU1... The audience was interactive. We were hit by lots of questions/suggestions around TripleO and OpenStack. Listing few here: * TripleO Docs are not clear for deploying OpenStack. * It is too much focus from the developer perspective and not from the end-user perspective. For example, the deployment architecture could be explained using few scenarios. * I deployed the cloud, how can I monitor it? * How to do HA deployment using TripleO (Docs from tripleo.org does not show how to do that) and a note about deployment types. * How to configure and use TripleO-Ui (Having screenshots would be better)? * We have lots of deployments methods, people are confused what to use when? RHOS Director or tripleo-quickstart or Manual method? * How to use tripleo-quickstart effectively by using config files? * what to do if somehow undercloud gets destroyed or not accessible? Is redeploy the only option or is there a way to recover it? * People are still confused about the relationship between RDO and RHOS products, what to use when? Should I follow Red Hat customer portal docs or Upstream Docs? * People are still not clear about RDO, its goal and its role in OpenStack. * Do we have a list of projects from which TripleO is formed? and better tracking of the component version we release under TripleO. * How users can contribute to TripleO and OpenStack through feedback (as many of them even do not know about IRC) On a positive note, we saw many people interested and trying out TripleO.
