Converged infrastructure is an idea for virtualization infrastructure that is enabling organizations to deploy more rapidly on a single commodity hardware platform for both compute and storage infrastructure. Until recently this was something that was difficult to do with Open Source software. This presentation provides an overview of what a converged infrastructure solution looks like and then digs into the Open Source software that can be used to build successful converged solutions. With Gluster and oVirt as foundational software packages the presentation will dig into advanced scenarios for deploying Virtual machines as well as adding additional nodes for both storage and compute. OpenStack networking, image management, and object store will be tied in as well to demonstrate the advantages of using Open Source to solve your organization's virtualization challenges
