I've been reading http://oneops.github.io/admin/key-concepts/ to try and understand what it is. I still have zero idea...
Its a Multi-Cloud Orchestrator. It lets you abstract multiple cloud providers, so you can say use Azure, S3 , Rackspace Openstack, your own openstack and your own VMware all at the same time, and have unified management. At the moment it supports any cloud with a OpenStack endpoint/integration. Blog post: http://www.walmartlabs.com/2016/01/oneops-now-available/

#62Struggling to wade through the thicket of buzzwords. What is this? Looks a bit like OpenShift or something?

#63I'm kinda surprised by this. My impression was that Walmart Labs had great success in deploying a pure-openstack private cloud in record time which was immense in scale. Why would they want to deploy to other clouds? https://www.openstack.org/summit/vancouver-2015/summit-video...
theories: * cloud bursting during high load * disaster recovery * putting things in geographic regions where they don't have their own hardware

You might want to brush up on business speak, that's the real reason for writing the vast majority of all software ever written or that will be written in this century.
The point is that it is possible to be able to pitch a technology to management without being overly opaque and sounding like a bag of buzzwords. Also, keep in mind that different industries are accustomed to different sets of terminology. Engineers at tech companies don't usually use terms such as "product delivery" and "Continuous Application Lifecycle Management." To us, "multi-cloud orchestrator" is a much cleare…

#67I'm not sure my brain is up to wading through the site trying to figure out what this is. Can someone break this down into it's purpose and components? Is it a code deployment system, container manager, open-stack, chef/puppet/fabric? http://oneops.github.io/admin/key-concepts/#oneops-system-ar...

#69"Accelerating product delivery in the Digital Economy through Continuous Application Lifecycle Management of Cloud-based Workload, backed by @WalmartLabs" I think you could work on that elevator pitch a little - it seems like it's been workshopped by a committee, and doesn't really tell me anything.
