I would like to propose my candidacy for the Monasca PTL. I have been the PTL on Monasca for the Newton release, and I would like to continue on. During the Newton cycle we added a significant number of new features, improved performance dramatically, completed the initial integration of Cassandra, added monasca-transform, added monasca-analytics, better integrated with Heat and many others. The Monasca community is extremeley productive. My goals and objectives for the project in the Ocata release are as follows: * Wrap-up reviews in-progress that improve the performance and interactivity of metrics, measurments and statistics queries. * Continue to work on performance enhancements. * Continue to enhance the Cassandra implementation by addressing performance improvements and compression. * Continue to develop monasca-analytics and address several use cases in more depth. * Continue to integrate with other OpenStack projects. * Evangelize Monasca and grow the developer and operator base. * Facilitate the development eco-system. * Write more code.
