There are many reviews that involve Monasca completely +outside of our project and one's that we aren't engaged in. There have +also been new deployments by companies outside of the core developers +working on Monasca. + +There are contributors involved with Monasca that are now keeping the +project on course in the community, taking on a lot of the infra tasks +for the project, which I have had a history of not being as diligent +about:-) But, we now have an official release manager for Monasca, +who does a fantastic job! + +There are also reviewers, that have also been surpassing me recently +in quality and quantity of reviews. Your contributions haven't gone +unnoticed by me and I've been thinking that someone else might +make a better PTL. + +However, we hadn't really discussed/prepared for that. Therefore, I +would like to propose my candidacy for PTL during the Pike release cycle. +I'll be relying heavily on others in the community to help me out in that +endeavor, but I'm more than happy to continue on and will try to keep up +with the pace. + +My goals and objectives for the project in the Pike release are as +follows: + +* Add new features to enhance the query capabilities in Monasca, such as +new statistics functions. For example, we've been discussing a new +Monasca Query Language (MQL) and supporting capabilities such as rates, +histograms, percentiles and many other functions. + +* Add new alarm manageability features to reduce alarm fatigue, such as +the ability to silence/inhibit alarms and group alarms. + +* Integrate Monasca with the container and Kubernetes ecosystem. We are +already well underway in this area, and in addition to becoming more +integrated with Kubernetes, this also makes an install of Monasca very +simple. + +* Continue to enhance the Logging-as-a-Service capabilities in the form +of the Kibana integration and support for Keystone and multi-tenancy, as +log well as extending the API for querying. + +* Transition completely to the Python API. Most of the development for +the API recently has been on the Python API, and for a lot of the +potential new development listed above, that would presumably only be +done on the Python API. + +There are many other areas that deserve mentioning, but I'll +leave it at that. + +Thank you for all the great work! + +Roland Hochmuth
