news 28 Posted March 3, 2017 Day One started early as the Virtualization track kicked off at 9:00 for a caffeine-deprived crowd. By 10 A.M., all of the sessions were in high gear with most rooms near capacity. Speakers could frequently be found adding last-minute touches to their presentations. Many acquaintances were renewed throughout the day and over the occasional adult beverage later this evening. “I haven’t seen you since 14x†was a common theme and a new term - SCALE hugs - was coined. After a full day of big data, clouds, packages, containers, replicated databases and file systems, attendees were ready for something a little lighter. Enter Bryan Lunduke to reprise his hilarious “Linux Sucks†session followed by Robin Rowe, Stormy Peters and Avni Khatri who offered their contrasting world view on the benefits of Open Source. A perfect way to tee up Day Two, featuring databases, containers, embedded computing and more. http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/15x/schedule/friday -- Share this post Link to post
