Noteworthy questions from the influencers (with time stamp included):

@TheJasonNash (8:00) You're providing the underlying infrastructure, a lot of companies do that, what about things above that? Getting organizations to the point where they can take advantage of things like OpenStack?

@JoshCoen (14:50) Outside of the Cisco name, what differentiates you guys from Platform9, and some of the other competitors that are doing OpenStack as a Service?

@TheJasonNash (33:25) Knowing that you manage the control planes, do you have access to the data plane? How does that work since you're controlling OpenStack?

To listen to more questions from the influencers watch the recorded session above and feel free to give you input in the below comment section.
