It’s the thick of conference season. I was at DevOpsDays earlier this week, and Agile & Beyond right now. Next week it’s DevOpsDays Seattle, then OSCON in Austin, and the CF Summit. If you want to go to any of these, I have registration discount codes for many of them, check out cote.io/promos.

Peak Ping Pong - Software Defined Talk #62

Coté Memo #6 - OpenStack, big cloud transformation
The OpenStack Summit was pretty good stuff. Coming up next week is DevOpsDays Austin where I’ll be speaking on Tuesday and staffing the table. I’m then off to the Agile and Beyond conference to talk better ways of doing software and unicorns. Hopefully I’ll see y'all around, otherwise, keep apprised of the Twitters for any hijinks.

Baltimore is not the same as Annapolis. Also, they like crab there - Software Defined Talk #61
OpenStack is crawling its way into the plateau of productivity, we submit, during this week of the OpenStack Summit. We also discuss the recent Docker survey findings, and some overly precise number on private vs. public cloud adoption. Coté also manages to insult the entire Eastern seaboard, esp. Annapolis.

Coté Memo #5 - OpenStack, an interest in cheese
I’ll be at the OpenStack Summit in Austin this week, meandering about talking with folks, at the Cloud Foundry Foundation booth a few afternoons, getting some pancakes and breakfast tacos with The New Stack folks, visiting with some analysts and other in-town, and moderating a panel on developer marketing Thursday morning.
Also, I got my second hair and beard cut from Abby Gapko. She does great work here in Austin and ain’t too expensive.
Coté Memo - Issue #4
Hello again. It’s been raining cats and dogs here in Austin, worse over there in Houston. We lived in years of draught, so downpours are always miraculous. I think the lake is even full now, after God knows how long of being way under.
Conferences The Spring conference season is on. You know if someone says “conference season” they go to (too many?) conferences for work. I’ve had to miss out on DevOpsDays London where I would have been speaking this week, but will be at all sorts of other conferences over the next few months:
