Virtual Reality as a Cloud Driver
● Yuge opportunities● Biggest-ever medium for engagement and interaction● Fuses cloud, social, NFV, IoT, Big Data● Relevant to most activities and metiers
● Insane challenges● Scale with headroom: scale out, scale up● Huge and dynamic consumer of compute, storage, network● Efficiency at war with QoE: no good architectures

Immersive Virtual Reality as an Operations Tool
● Better use of human physiology in mindwork● Efficient presentation of data and interactivity● Easy to shift focus and viewpoint (camera view)● Provide differentiated views of data at zero overhead● Use topology to orient — way better than 2D● Natively social: Collaborate without the overheads

Virtual Reality and OpenStack: The Challenge
● Can we use APIs to make OpenStack interoperate with immersive 3D platforms, toolchains and environments?
● Can we do this with:● Free and/or preferably FOSS components?● Using OpenStack's most-commonly used languages?
■ Python■ Web tools
● In an open way that prevents lock-in? (Of 3D envs or other bits)● In a way harmonious with community architecture standards?

Virtual Reality and OpenStack: Getting Real
● On the upside, we work for Mirantis!● On the downside … in Marketing● We've done virtual events!● (And yes, we can code a lick)● But Python, not so much● OpenStack SDK/internals, nope● We build clusters pretty good!● But of course, we do it with Fuel

Unity 3D: F (not FOSS), but All Kinds of Awesome
● Free (for individual use)● Aggressively multi-platform● Write once, run anywhere● Standalone or Server● Code in C# or javascript● Beautiful, mature toolchain● Huge community● Oculus-, VIVE, etc., ready: Compile and Go

OpenSim: FOSS - Simple and rich
● Free and Open Source● Distros and clients for Lin/Win/Mac● Code in LSL, Mono, VB and others● Good for (small) enterprise VR● Does not scale well● Non-coders can create● Global, diverse community

Onward to the Matrix
● We will put our code on GitHub if nobody snarks● John will be committing doc improvements to SDK● We keep refactoring and generalizing:
● 3D Abstraction Layer● Environment Driver
● And adding features to the API, e.g., VR Murano Catalog
