I would like to announce my candidacy for being a PTL of +Mistral Workflow Service in Ocata cycle. + +I think Mistral now is a pretty mature project which provides really useful +and cool capabilities. The project now is moving into the phase when technical +perfection should be the number one priority. In many case Mistral serves as +one of the central infrastructural components. To be able to build production +ready solutions on top of Mistral it needs to be reliable, demonstrate +excellent performance, provide good usability and comprehensive documentation. + +Here are my priorities for Ocata cycle: + +* Performance. In Newton cycle we made Mistral work about 30 times faster. + Now it's able to complete a workflow consisting of hundreds of tasks with + highly parallel structure and lots of join operations during tens of + seconds or less depending on workflow actions. That's not all, there's + still a potential to do even better and also improve Mistral when dealing + with parallel loads. +* Scaling. Although it's now possible to scale Mistral engine tier we still + need to improve when having a high load. +* Extensibility. We started working on Custom Action API which will allow + writing custom Mistral actions in a more flexible, elegant and powerful + way. We're planning to finish this work in Ocata cycle. +* Usability and documentation. There are some gaps in Mistral documentation. + User experience, especially CLI, also needs to be improved. We finally + started gathering ideas for new CLI and API versions in Newton cycle. +* Building even more robust and diverse community. + +I'd like to welcome everyone who wants to help with Mistral development. +We'll provide all necessary assistance. + diff --git a/exceptions.txt b/exceptions.txt index c1ab0151..d3443cfb 100644 --- a/exceptions.txt +++ b/exceptions.txt @@ -1,3 +1,4 @@ # This file contains exception for manually verified candidates # : candidates/ocata/Congress/ekcs.txt: Eric Kao +candidates/ocata/Mistral/rakhmerov.txt: Renat Akhmerov
