Hi,
|
||
|
||
My name is Felipe Monteiro. I have decided to run for Murano PTL for the Pike
|
||
release cycle. I would like to continue to grow Murano in order to make the
|
||
project more stable, mature and performant, while exploring avenues to evolve
|
||
the project.
|
||
|
||
I’ve been working on the project for the past couple months. Working with
|
||
Murano is probably the most exciting thing I do professionally. When I first
|
||
joined OpenStack, I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of code, as well
|
||
as the complexity involved in how the various services interact. Thanks
|
||
to the welcoming culture surrounding Murano, I was immediately given help,
|
||
advice and guidance, which, after a couple months of persistence and hard work,
|
||
has enabled me to feel like a solid contributor within OpenStack.
|
||
|
||
Over the past couple months, I’ve been heavily invested in improving Murano’s
|
||
testing framework, in order to make the project more stable and more mature.
|
||
This has resulted in Murano and Murano Dashboard’s unit test coverage having
|
||
approximately doubled, as well as having various gaps in Murano Dashboard’s
|
||
functional testing filled via Selenium tests. I also regularly code review
|
||
other developers' work and take on the arduous task of editing Murano's
|
||
documentation, because, as a native speaker of English, I really have no excuse
|
||
but to help out in this regard.
|
||
|
||
I’m really excited to work with Murano further, and to grow the community
|
||
surrounding it. The more companies that contribute to Murano, the stronger the
|
||
community around it will be, capable of maintaining and enhancing Murano for
|
||
years to come.
|
||
|
||
The main goals I’d like to focus on for Murano during Pike are:
|
||
* Significantly improve Murano Tempest testing. This includes integrating
|
||
Murano with a new OpenStack project called Patrole. Patrole, a Tempest
|
||
plugin responsible for testing Role-Based Access Control, was spearheaded
|
||
and founded by AT&T developers and contributors. Its purpose is to help
|
||
harden the security underpinning various OpenStack services – Murano
|
||
included.
|
||
* Significantly improve Murano documentation.
|
||
* Improve Murano’s (particularly Murano Dashboard’s) integration with GLARE –
|
||
there are a number of areas in the UI where GLARE is not supported.
|
||
These areas should be fixed to provide users who use Murano and GLARE a
|
||
better user experience.
|
||
* Focus on addressing a number of outstanding bugs in Murano. These include
|
||
adding SIGHUP signal support to Murano, support multiple rabbit hosts in
|
||
RabbitMQ for Murano Agent, and addressing other UI bugs, like abandon
|
||
environment hanging issues.
|
||
|
||
My personal ambition leads me to want to also tackle the following items:
|
||
* Possibly integrate Murano with other OpenStack projects, including
|
||
Ceilometer, Search Light, or Kolla-Kubernetes.
|
||
* Investigate multi-cloud support for Murano, so that it works with different
|
||
cloud services including VMWare and Amazon.
|
||
* Increase developer contribution in Murano through my own coding efforts,
|
||
as well as through AT&T’s resources.
|
||
|
||
Thanks for taking the time to read through this roadmap and to consider my
|
||
candidacy. Regardless of the outcome, I'm excited to continue contributing
|
||
to Murano, be it code or code reviews.
|
||
|
||
Regards,
|
