#cebit >schade drum, aber schon lange abzusehen. das neue konzept #cebit2018 hat mir gefallen! ist aber jahre zu spät an den start gegangen (ängstlich deutsch eben) und das war mein fazit bereits 2015 und davor. 科技參展2015 漢諾威CeBIT 展 #CeBIT2015 – ein überraschendes highlight insgesamt war mein cebit-rundgang in diesem jahr vollkommen frei von inspirationen, bemerkenswerten neuheiten und trends. langweilig, von der datenschutzhysterie geprägt bis hin zur lächerlichen rückständigkeit. microsoft traute sich sogar seinen messeauftritt mit »digitales wirtschaftswunder« (haha) zu überschreiben. auch eine guided tour »enterprise mobilität« brachte nichts ansatzweise neues oder wegweisendes.

CeBIT 2015 retrospective

On Monday I visited this years CeBIT. The first time after three or so years.

As usual most of the big vendors were represented. Over at the IBM booth I looked if could find oVirt on Power8, but the only thing they were demonstrating were RHEL 7 (and some other distors) on Power8.

The open source party was quite small. Just a few booths, far fewer than a few years ago. But there were and are some quite interesting talks at the Open Source Forum - including a couple of talks from Jon 'maddog' Hall, Klaus Knopper and a few others - look at the schedule here.

At the end of the day - and 45minutes delayed - I had a short session (slides) about oVirt. The audience was small, but they seemed to be interested in oVirt and a couple of them seemed to get back to it.

A real highlight? No, sorry, I did not see any. For oVirt it was good to show up at an exhibition like this. You are visible to an audience which is normally not present at the f/loss conferences we usually have.

And about the future of Open Source at CeBIT? I am not sure. To me it looks like the global vision on what Open Source want's to represent at CeBIT is somewhat missing.
