After only two years, OpenStack has become the de-facto standard open source cloud computing platform and is the fastest growing open source project in history. With over 5,000 members from over 850 different organizations in over 80 countries supporting over 500 active developers that have contributed over 500,000 lines of code, OpenStack is the foundation of numerous products and services.
The future of OpenStack will depend on ensuring that customers, service providers, and product companies are able to build the most innovative products and services on top of the OpenStack platform. Chris C. Kemp, co- founder of OpenStack and CEO of Nebula, will discuss the challenges and opportunities ahead for OpenStack, the Foundation, the community, and the opportunity for OpenStack to disrupt enterprise computing in the next five years in the same way that mobile has disrupted personal computing.
