ISC'19 OPUG Birds-of-a-Feather (BoF) event

June 19, 2019

We are organising an OPUG BoF session at ISC’19 in Frankfurt, Germany on Wednesday, June 19th, 2019 from 3:45pm-4:45pm in the Kontrast Room.

If you are going to ISC19 this year and would like to contribute to the panel, we are looking for a panelist to represent a site that runs OPA along with containers (singularity or others) and one to represent a site that runs OPA on a non-containerised setup. You will be asked to present your site for 5 minutes (maybe highlighting the performance/ issues/ typical applications) and answer questions from the audience. Note that panelists will require at least an Exhibition Pass but expenses will not be covered. Contact the organisers by email at d.benoit@hull.ac.uk or d.galetti@cineca.it by May 22nd, 2019.
