Recapping OpenStack Summit Barcelona

More than 5,200 OpenStack professionals and enthusiasts gathered in Barcelona, Spain to attend the 2016 OpenStack Summit. From the keynotes to the break-out sessions to the marketplace to the evening events and the project work sessions on Friday, there was plenty to keep attendees busy throughout the week. In fact, if you were one of the lucky ones who attended OpenStack Summit, there was probably many sessions and activities you wanted to make it to but couldn&;t.
Red Hat was very busy throughout the week as well, as we participated in 49 sessions, staffed a booth in the marketplace with five demo stations, announced several new and exciting customers, hosted and co-hosted evening events throughout the week, and held hands-on, intensive training through OpenStack Academy. So if you weren&8217;t able to make it to every Red Hat session, or couldn&8217;t go to the Summit at all, here is a recap of everything we did.
Announcements
With Ericsson, we announced a new alliance to enable the adoption of open source solutions. In addition, we announced several new customers who are having great success with OpenStack in deployment:

Swisscom Guides Customers into the Digital Age with Red Hat OpenStack Platform and Red Hat Virtualization
Produban Chooses Red Hat as Technology Partner to Deliver Modern Cloud Services with Kubernetes and Containers on OpenStack
Communications Leaders Choose Red Hat OpenStack Platform for Powering Cloud Deployments to Deliver New Services
UKCloud Creates an Open Source Alternative for UK Public Sector with Red Hat OpenStack Platform

Finally, we announced the results of our second annual customer survey, gathering their thoughts on key topics related to OpenStack, including deployment, management tools, and containers.
