Chrome OS is Google’s Linux-based operating system that focuses on speed, simplicity and security. From the beginning Chrome OS computers could run Chrome, and a few specially made applications, but since 2016 they also fully support Google Play, enabling users to access millions of Android apps. Chrome OS devices are readily available from many manufacturers. Since version 69 of Chrome OS, released in the fall of 2018, users can run a Debian GNU/Linux operating system inside a VM and container. This opens the option of running any Linux desktop app on a Chrome OS device, instantly making Chrome OS devices the most easily available Linux computer for a consumer to get. In this talk we will discuss: - The architecture of Linux on Chrome OS (aka Crostini), and its rationale - Its current features and functionality - Personalizing and configuring your container - Enterprise features to control linux deployments on Chrome OS - Roadmap plans, and best ways to ship Linux applications on Chrome OS

Recent versions of ChromeOS allow users to run a full Debian operating system in a dedicated container. This talk discusses the technologies behind the implementation, the current functionalities, and a rough roadmap of where we're going to bring this features, that integrates the chrome and linux desktop for the first time, making ChromeOS the most readily available Linux machine for an end user or enterprise.

ChromeOS is a Google made Linux-based operating system that focuses on security, speed, and is optimized to run a web centric workload. From the beginning ChromeOS computers could run Chrome, and a few specially made applications, but since 2016 they also run Android apps. ChromeOS devices are readily available from many manufacturers.

Since version 69 of ChromeOS, released in the fall of 2018, users can run a Debian GNU/Linux operating system inside a VM and container. This is initially targeted at power users and developers, but opens the option of running any Linux desktop app on a ChromeOS device, instantly making ChromeOS devices the most easily available Linux computer for a consumer to get.

In this talk we will discuss:

• The architecture of Crostini, and its rationale

• Its current features and functionality

• Personalizing and configuring your container

• Enterprise features to control linux deployments on ChromeOS

• Roadmap plans, including how developers can target ChromeOS as a platform for users to run their Linux desktop applications

New or unknown Ganeti functionality. We will discuss: - monitoring daemon - confd - network management - ext storage

Ganeti is an open source cluster virtualization manager that's been presented at FOSDEM previously. This talk will discuss what's new in the Ganeti codebase since last year, and also focus on less widely known features that might make life easier for current and future adopters. We will also provide hints into what's coming soon, in the current release candidate, beta and bleeding edge version.

Ganeti is a cluster virtualization manager, which can be used to create your own private infrastructure to host IaaS type services. Ganeti has been a regular presence at Fosdem for the last few years. In this talk we will look at the last year of development, the changes in the upcoming 2.7 version and future plans.

Newcomers who don't k are welcome, as are experienced Ganeti users who would like to bring feedback or contribute their own experience.

Brief introduction to the Ganeti cluster virtual machine manager, latest features and suggestion for creating a production environment.
