I am currently +the PTL for the Queens release series and would like to continue helping our +team provide network load balancing services for OpenStack. + +For those of you that do not know me, I work for Rackspace. Prior to joining +Rackspace I worked for Hewlett-Packard for fifteen years on data center +automation, distributed network systems, embedded system design, and big data. + +In the Queens release, we were able to add support for batch member updates, +QoS on the load balancer VIPs, support for Castellan, operator tooling, and +many more enhancements. Beyond that work, we laid the ground work for Rocky. + +Looking forward to Rocky I expect the team to finish out some major new +features, such as Active/Active load balancers, UDP protocol support, +provider drivers, flavors, additional tempest tests and additional operator +tooling. I plan to continue working on improving our documentation, +specifically with detailed installation, high availability, and neutron-lbaas +migration guides. + +Thank you for your support of Octavia during Queens and your consideration for +Rocky, + +Michael Johnson (johnsom)
