This demo addresses the challenges of managing latency, data locality, compliance, and availability in distributed environments. By integrating OpenStack edge cloud deployments with SONiC VPP switches over x86 servers across data centers, it enables seamless edge traffic routing through major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, Google) while retaining control at the edge. Optimized for IoT and AI/ML, this solution leverages network slicing to deliver a secure, multi-tenant environment. OpenStack and SONiC together provide high-performance, low-latency connectivity essential for edge computing.

A fully integrated OpenStack cluster, especially one utilizing Ironic or Neutron, touches all parts of an environment. Tight integration like this comes with a price: almost any issue in your environment may be surfaced as a failure or error to an end user. In this session, we will discuss how to properly monitor your OpenStack cluster, separating real-world failures from software bugs as well as how to market your cloud engineering work to nontechnical parts of the business.

Topic: FOSS @ HOME

While useful for enabling external access to services within a private network, poses significant security risks and potential complications. By opening specific ports on a router, users expose their internal network to threats such as unauthorized access and cyberattacks, as attackers often scan for open ports to exploit vulnerabilities. misconfigurations during the setup process can lead to further security breaches and network instability. With the availability of safer alternatives like Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and cloud services, the need for port forwarding diminishes.
