Dear all,
I think many of you are aware of M.Sc-FOSS degree program from Anna
University.
I am one of the student and now I am in the final semester (project sem).
My IT background is full of Linux administration and not a programmer. But
in this semester I need to do a project in any open source technology. I
have planned to do a project related to Openstack and Cloud computing, but
I have no specific idea of project
(don't know what to do).
Please guide me on this from where to start, Any project ideas etc.,
typical projects like these which are time bound and dependent on
understanding of your professors and guides . what is the time frame we are
talking about here ?
what skills do you already have ? to take the plunge in the sense of
understanding the landscape quickly first and then aligning oneself to be
able to fulfill your project requirements as well as contribute back to the
project .
start with
http://devstack.org/
, i am sure with your admin background you should be able to sail through
the first step of setting it up
start looking around
https://ask.openstack.org for asking questions and
answering them or solving them if you can .
join the developers mailing list
http://www.openstack.org/community/ ;,
there are two channels on Freenode IRC you should be hanging on
#openstack,#openstack-101
write a blog post what you are looking for share it with people you feel
comfortable with in the Openstack community as guide.
you should be starting now and should be comfortable with in a week with
the above activities in order to get to the real work ahead of you .
ask more here if you do not understand any of this .
