Speaker: Robbie Williamson, Canonical

As  the  main  sponsors  of  Ubuntu,  Canonical  is  deeply  experienced  with  running  instances  in  all  the  major   public  clouds,  and  as  one  of  the  first  members  of  the  OpenStack  project,  also  has  organizational   expertise  with  the  private  cloud.

With  this  all  in  mind,  we  asked  our  IS  team  a  question:   

Would  it  be  possible  for  us  to  move  to  a  cloud-­centric  workflow  across  the  entire  company?   Supporting  not  only  the  internal  systems  that  keep  Canonical  running,  but  also  parts  of  the  widely   popular  and  globally  used  Ubuntu  project?   

The  answer  was  "Yes""....but  we  learned  a  ton  and  would  like  to  share  some  of  the  things  we  learned.
