The 1st Swiss OpenStack user group meeting that was organized by the zhgeeks and the ICCLab at the ETH Zürich met with a large response. Over 90 people attended the meeting with different background and interests in connection with OpenStack. The meeting started with a good and brief introduction into the components and the community around OpenStack by Tim Bell and how it is […]
The ICCLab presented at SwiNG SDCD 2012 on how you can easily provision bare-metal physical servers. This presentation, “From Bare-Metal to Cloud” was an updated version of the presentation that was made at the EGI Technical Forum in Prague.
In coordination with ZH-Geeks, the ICCLab will be hosting the very first Swiss OpenStack user group meeting on the 15th of Novemeber. In addition to Tim Bell there will be a number of other speakers who will present on various OpenStack topics. Tim Bell runs the infrastructure team at CERN where they run a very […]
The ICCLab along with the the ZH-Geeks community will be hosting the very first Swiss OpenStack User group. The event will take place on the 15th of November, starting from 1800 onwards. Amongst other to be announced presentations, Tim Bell will be giving the keynote presentation. He will also detail how OpenStack is used in CERN. […]
This is the presentation that was presented at the [EGI Technical Forum 2012 in Prague](http://tf2012.egi.eu/).

Contributions to Open Source Software (OSS) projects are an excellent means to foster broad uptake of innovations and has therefore become indispensable for research and development in computer science.
With the Internet allowing ubiquitous collaboration (e.g. between OSS software developers, OSS community managers, OSS document editors, etc) of all sorts, across all backgrounds, and locations spread over the entire globe, some OSS projects are so successful that they reach sizes (and budgets) that are comparable to full-blown companies.
The ICCLab team presented gave a live demo of our [OpenStack cluster](http://www.cloudcomp.ch/2012/06/whats-powering-the-icclab/) at the /ch/open [Open Cloud Day](http://www.ch-open.ch/index.php?id=1034). It was an excellent day with many view points from governmental all the way down to Infrastructure as a Service and automation. The presentation given in this video and more details of the talk can be [found […]
So all our work in the previous articles has been leading up to this one. In this article we’ll describe how you can deploy a full multi-node [OpenStack](http://www.openstack.org) cluster beginning from bare metal using [Foreman](http://www.theforeman.org) and [puppet](http://www.puppetlabs.com). Before continuing we should note what exactly ‘bare metal’ is in this context. Bare metal refers to physical server hardware that has not yet been provisioned with an operating system. When provisioning this bare metal, it is assumed that the underlying network has been setup (e.g. L2 configurations).
ICCLabs and GWDG will present on the topic of “From Bare-Metal to Cloud” at EGI Technical Forum 2012 in Prague.
