Hi Everyone, I would like to announce my candidacy for PTL for the Freezer
|
|
Project during the Ocata Cycle.
|
|
|
|
The Freezer Team has done an amazing job of getting the Freezer Project to
|
|
where it is today. For the last six months, I have been fortunate to have
|
|
been a contributing member of the Team, and have worked with some amazing,
|
|
talented people. I would like to continue that effort to help the Team move
|
|
the project even further along.
|
|
|
|
I see the PTL role as an enabler of the Team to make the project successful by
|
|
assisting the Team in the following ways:
|
|
|
|
* Drive the feature set under development to enhance the usefulness of the
|
|
project across the OpenStack ecosystem.
|
|
|
|
* Steer the technical architecture of the Project as much as possible with
|
|
assistance from the Team.
|
|
|
|
* Facilitate communication between team members by organizing, scheduling, and
|
|
running team meetings and events.
|
|
|
|
* Handle OpenStack administrative work to allow the Team to focus on
|
|
development, reviews, bug fixes, and documentation.
|
|
|
|
* Create an inviting welcoming project to enlarge the number of contributors to
|
|
the Team and create a broader community.
|
|
|
|
* Ensure the quality of the committed code.
|
|
|
|
* Act as an ambassador to other OpenStack Projects to help facilitate tight
|
|
integration across OpenStack components.
|
|
|
|
Top priorities for the Ocata cycle would be:
|
|
|
|
* Move to a plugin architecture so that users of the Freezer service would be
|
|
enabled to extend the Freezer functionality to handle their specific backup
|
|
use cases.
|
|
|
|
* Begin development on a deduplication feature so that Freezer is on par with
|
|
industrial-strength backup solutions.
|
|
|
|
* Replace usage of the Elasticsearch DB with MySQL DB to better align with
|
|
OpenStack standards and move to a more appropriate relational model for
|
|
Freezer configuration data.
|
|
|
|
* Harden the Freezer components so that they are more resilient to failures.
|
|
|
|
* Continue to improve testing coverage by building out the integration tests
|
|
that have been recently added in the last cycle.
|
|
|
|
* Work the Karbor Project to help discover integration possibilities
|
|
between Freezer and Karbor.
|
|
|
|
* Engage in Freezer presentations at the OpenStack Design Summits to
|
|
further Freezer's acceptance and adoption in the OpenStack Community.
|
|
|
|
I would be honored to have your vote.
|
|
|
|
Respectfully yours.
|
|
|
