Hello Team! I would like to submit my candidacy for the TC election.
|
|
|
|
I have been involved in OpenStack activities since April 2011, when I became
|
|
part one of the founders of the networking project known as Quantum at that
|
|
time. I have been a core reviewer for Neutron since November 2011. I helped
|
|
to create the networking guide and contributed to multiple chapters. I have
|
|
spoken at many OpenStack summits, meet-ups and conferences. I have been very
|
|
active in the Operators meet-up moderating multiple sessions. In few words
|
|
"I love to evangelize OpenStack".
|
|
|
|
Last four years I have gained experience on project management and leadership
|
|
from different team perspectives like technology vendors, networking start-up
|
|
and over a year as OpenStack operator. This last one has been very interesting
|
|
compare with my previous ones because of my focus on a production ready
|
|
cloud powered by OpenStack. Running a high-scale production cloud is giving me
|
|
a different perspective on how the platform should be delivered as a product
|
|
ready to use and that is what I will be bringing to the TC and to all project
|
|
members and PTLs.
|
|
|
|
As a TC member my main focus will be to close any existing gap between the
|
|
development teams and their customers who are the OpenStack users and operators
|
|
between others. In my operator role I have validated documentation and best
|
|
practices on OpenStack deployment and operations and I have been provided all
|
|
possible feedback and I want to do more on this area. I believe we can make
|
|
OpenStack better if we open the TC to members who have deployed pure OpenStack
|
|
with no vendor specific guidelines or any specific distribution influence.
|
|
|
|
I strongly believe we will make OpenStack more solid and integrated. I will
|
|
work as cross-project liaison in order to reach this goal. I will continue my
|
|
work of evangelizing the newest OpenStack projects and guide them to have the
|
|
best adoption process by the community and also I will help them to have the
|
|
best integration with any other open-source technologies.
|
|
|
|
No matter what is the result of the election I will continue my work on
|
|
OpenStack with passion and courage. This is the best project ever and it can
|
|
be even better. Let's inject some fresh ideas to the TC, let's keep making
|
|
this platform the de-facto cloud management system for all operators either
|
|
public, private or hybrid clouds.
|
|
|
|
Thank you so much for reading and considering my humble aspiration to the TC!
|
|
