==== OPNFV Talks at Industry Events (past, most recent first) ====

  * ONS 2016 "NFV/SDN Information and Data Models in Standards and Open Source" session: {{:ons_models.pptx|}}
    * In addition to the content of the deck, Bryan and Artur showed:
      * a demo of OPNFV Brahmaputra running on one of the [[https://www.ravellosystems.com/|Ravello]] OPNFV blueprints created by Iben Rodriguez, focusing on the graphical representation of the blueprint in Ravello as an example of how such a UI can be used to develop a model of a VNF.
      * a demo of the [[https://demo.jujucharms.com/|JuJu Charms sandbox]] environment with the "clearwater" blueprint loaded, showing how simple it is to edit the components, and export a YAML file for the blueprint
  * The [[http://www.etsi.org/component/content/article/9-news-events/news/1053-2016-01-news-etsi-seeks-harmonization-of-nfv-information-modelling-across-standards-bodies-and-open-source|ETSI Information Modeling Workshop]] was the main inspiration for the Models project proposal. 
    * All workshop inputs and results are available on the [[https://docbox.etsi.org/ISG/NFV/Open/Other/2016_01_13_NFV_Information_Modelling_Workshop-Louisville/|ETSI Open Documents Repository]]
