The innovation track is to host and BBF Brids of a feather sessions in person and via webinars:

Potential Birds of a Feather sessions for 2016 Q4 meeting

• Network Operations and Implementation: what guidance can be given to accelerate the deployment of new technology that meets the timescales and  most pressing requirements of service providers
• Network Migration: what valuable information, guidance and assistance can be given to regional and local service providers (especially as auditing members of the BBF)

From Mike Bugehhagen:

Mark, Christele,

       First -   I think that the BBF should have a “download our presentations” type area that is more publicist oriented… to draw people to the site.

                                Of course you can channel distribute through Light reading, but we should have our own repository…

Second -  I have an candidate Idea for the Kansas City BOF (if you are planning one)…

                Here I would go after describing the “life after the software pivot”….

Rough outline …   (the idea here is to teach people how to think about what the BBF produces)

Topic  -     Agile/  NetOp’s … Just how do these work

                                (They are cloud terms,  not a marketing term)

Sectional concepts  –                                       

• Philosophy of Code reuse & Standard controller / API code (agile code dev).

        80% re-use / 20% integration = velocity

• Philosophy of “the Stack”

Modular controller / functions that you integrate into your solution (no more frameworks – it’s a living wall)

The Data store is the key, everything else is modular

• Making the Pivot – (you can’t get there if you don’t take a few steps)

                                What are the systems & data bases

                                What controllers & code can we use

                                How do I hire / budget and progress our Netop’s

• Top down vs. Bottom up

        Enabling automation via Meta-Class

                                Top Down vs. Bottom up

                                Simplicity, customer focus, and Automation
