Collabora engineers Andrew Lee and Héctor Orón Martínez attended the FOSSASIA Summit 2018 in Singapore, presenting on Open Build Service (OBS) and a CI pipeline case study using containerized FOSS tools. Andrew's talk covered OBS benefits including multi-architecture builds, QA workflows, and VCS-like branching.

## Questions this post answers

### What is Open Build Service (OBS) and what are its main features for package management?

Open Build Service (OBS) is a generic system to build and distribute packages from sources in an automatic, consistent, and reproducible way. Key features include multi-target distro and architecture builds from scratch, QA-accessible developer repos for testing before production integration, a VCS-like workflow with branching and merge requests, and flexible backend worker configuration supporting different architectures.

_Teams managing multi-distro packaging workflows track OBS developments and alternatives on daily.dev._
