Gone are the days that one needs to either pay for expensive software packages... or be a little pirate. With open source packages like GIMP, Inkscape and Blender, just about everyone can now join in.|| ||{{attachment:Bennie.jpg}} || Bennie Kahler-Venter|| http://www.abrocha.co.za|| ELK - Log Analysis || Do amazing things with Elastic Search, Logstash and Kibana|| ||{{attachment:Guillaume.jpg}}|| Guillaume Belrose || http://kafecho.blogspot.com|| Be sensible, use Ansible|| In this talk, I will give a quick overview of Ansible (http://docs.ansible.com), a radically simple open source configuration management tool with almost no learning curve. Via playbooks, Ansible allows you to easily automate the configuration of Linux (and Windows) hosts, from 1 to thousands of nodes. I will briefly touch on the core Ansible concepts and talk about / demo things you can do with it.|| ||{{attachment:Johann.jpg}}|| Johann Els || http://www.suse.com || OpenSUSE Build Service || coming soon|| ||{{attachment:Ross.jpg}}|| Ross Addis || http://www.redhat.com || Open Hybrid Cloud || coming soon|| ||{{attachment:StefanL.jpg}}|| Stefan Lesicnik || http://www.lsd.co.za || OpenShift|| Coming soon|| ||{{attachment:StephanB.jpg}}|| Stephan Buys || http://www.panoptix.co.za || Platform launch || coming soon|| ||{{attachment:Tim.jpg}}|| Tim Haak || [[https://twitter.com/tim_haak|@tim_haak]] || Docker || Intro to docker what it is and why you may want to use it|| ||{{attachment:Tshepo.jpg}}|| Tshepo Moabi|| coming soon || Vision of the end user || A talk about computing from the perspective of someone who cares for nothing, except the experienced derived from using a desktop computer. He is not a geek or a developer, he's just a regular end user... nothing more. Tshepo Moabi has become tired of the inefficiencies of the many systems that exist. He wants a system that makes it very quick and easy for him to access anything from his computer. A system that exists solely to make computing easier, either for someone new to the world of clicking and typing or for someone who has enjoyed a long, prosperous journey through the many user interfaces that exist. Tshepo has spent endless time downloading and customizing, and many more hours, just to save a few microseconds of navigation while using the desktop computer. The self proclaimed 'regular end user', talks about his vision for the future. This is a vision of the most efficient OS in the world, it also is the easiest UI to learn.|| ||{{attachment:WalterL.jpg}}|| Walter Leibrandt || [[https://twitter.com/wasbeer|@wasbeer]] || Securing yourself with Free Software || What you can do to protect yourself|| ||TBC Alan.jpg|| Alan McKinnon|| coming soon || Building a Business using Open Source Software|| The pitfalls and the shining stars|| |
