Indeni is sponsoring AnsibleFest 2018 in Austin, Texas, bringing automation-focused content and attendee engagement to the conference via an onsite booth, Lightning Talks, and surveys. The company offers incentives like Visa gift cards for survey participation and an Oculus Go raffle tied to booth Lightning Talks, while also promoting a virtual Automation 101 Learning Path and social updates for those who cannot attend. Indeni is collecting data through a short Firewall Best Practices Survey to compile ongoing firewall health best practices and is offering a $1,000 prize drawing for respondents.
What activities will Indeni be running at their AnsibleFest 2018 booth?
At AnsibleFest 2018, Indeni will staff a booth in Austin, Texas where attendees can participate in a three-question onsite survey in exchange for a Visa gift card. The booth will host 15-minute Lightning Talks at 12:30 pm on both conference days explaining how Indeni and Ansible work together; attendees of those talks will be entered into an Oculus Go raffle at 12:45 pm. Indeni will also use the booth for community engagement and share information about their Automation 101 Learning Path and Firewall Best Practices Survey.
How can people who are not attending AnsibleFest still engage with Indeni's resources?
Non-attendees can engage with Indeni by accessing their Automation 101 Learning Path, which is intended to help users virtually experience conference content and build automation knowledge. Indeni encourages connecting on Twitter for live updates from Austin and promoting virtual participation. Additionally, remote participants can take the Firewall Best Practices Survey online to contribute insights and enter the $1,000 prize drawing without attending the event in person.
What is the purpose and incentive structure of Indeni's Firewall Best Practices Survey?
Indeni’s Firewall Best Practices Survey aims to compile ongoing firewall health best practices from enterprise IT organizations to inform their growth as a crowdsourced company. The survey is brief—taking under nine minutes to complete—and is being promoted as a way for respondents to share practical operational insights. To encourage participation, Indeni offers entry into a $1,000 prize drawing for survey respondents and also promotes a Visa gift card incentive for attendees who complete the onsite survey at AnsibleFest.

The automation titans will be under one roof this October when Indeni sponsors AnsibleFest 2018. Here at Indeni, we are as eager to dive into a whole range of automation conversations.
