[openstack-dev] [magnum] PTL Candidacy for Stein

2018-07-27 Thread Spyros Trigazis
Hello OpenStack community!

I would like to nominate myself as PTL for the Magnum project for the
Stein cycle.

In the last cycle magnum became more stable and is reaching the point
of becoming a feature complete solution for providing managed container
clusters for private or public OpenStack clouds. Also during this cycle
the community around the project became healthy and more sustainable.

My goals for Stein are to:
- complete the work in cluster upgrades and cluster healing
- keep up with the latest release of Kubernetes and Docker in stable
  branches and improve their release process
- documenation for cloud operators improvements
- continue on building the community which supports the project

Thanks for your time,
Spyros

[openstack-dev] [magnum] PTL Candidacy for Queens

2017-08-04 Thread Spyros Trigazis
Hello!

I would like to nominate myself as PTL for the Magnum project for the
Queens cycle.

I have been consistently contributing to Magnum since February 2016
and I am a core reviewer since August 2016. Since then, I have
contributed to significant features like cluster drivers, add Magnum
tests to Rally (I'm core reviewer to rally to help the rally team with
Magnum related reviews), wrote Magnum's installation tutorial and
served as docs liaison for the project. My latest contribution is the
swarm-mode cluster driver. I have been the release liaison for Magnum
for Pike and I have contributed a lot in Magnum's CI jobs (adding
multi-node, DIB and new driver jobs, I haven't managed to add Magnum
in CentOS CI yet :( but we have granted access). Finally, I have been
working closely with other projects consumed by Magnum like Heat and
Fedora Atomic.

My plans for Queens are to contribute and guide other contributors to:
* Finalize and stabilize the very much wanted feature for cluster
  upgrades.
* Add functionality to heal clusters from a failed state.
* Add functionality for federated Kubernetes clusters and potentially
  other cluster types.
* Add Kuryr as a network driver.

Thanks for considering me,
Spyros Trigazis

[openstack-dev] [magnum] PTL candidacy

2016-09-13 Thread Hongbin Lu
Hi,

I would like to announce my candidacy for re-election as Magnum PTL.

My involvement in Magnum began in December 2014, in which the project was at
a very early stage. Since then, I have been working with the team to explore
the roadmap, implement and refine individual components, and gradually grow
the feature set. In the past release cycle, it was my honor to serve as
Magnum PTL and I am happy to continue the service in the next cycle.

Based on past discussion within the team, I believe Magnum will focus on the
following items at the new cycle:

* Life-cycle operations: Add support for several life-cycle operations for
  managing long running clusters. In the short-term, we could add support for
  basic operations like reboot, restart, upgrade, and rebuild. Additional
  operations can be considered in long-term.
* Heterogeneous cluster: Magnum currently doesn't support the ability to
  create a heterogeneous cluster, in which worker nodes are allowed to have
  different configurations (i.e. amount of cpu, memory, or I/O). I believe the
  problem needs to be addressed in the new cycle. As discussed within the team,
  we will introduce a new concept, called node group, to represent a collection
  of nodes with same configuration. As a result, a heterogeneous cluster can be
  represented by a collection of node groups.

In addition, I believe the items below are important and need attention in
the new cycle:

* Kuryr integration: Continue to collaborate with Kuryr team to deliver a
  networking solution.
* Ironic integration: We had great progress at Newton in this area and will
  continue the work in the new cycle.
* Quality assurance: Improve coverage of integration and unit tests.
* Documentation: Enhance documents for operators.
* Horizon UI: Enhance our Horizon plugin.
* Grow the community: Attract new contributors to Magnum.

Thank you for considering my PTL candidacy.

[openstack-dev] [magnum] PTL Candidacy

2016-03-19 Thread Adrian Otto
I announce my candidacy [1] for, and respectfully respect your support to 
continue as your Magnum PTL.

Here are are my achievements and OpenStack experience and that make me the best 
choice for this role:

* Founder of the OpenStack Containers Team
* Established vision and specification for Magnum
* Served as PTL for Magnum since the first line of code was contributed in 
November 2014
* Successful addition of Magnum to the official OpenStack projects list on 
2015-03-24
* Led numerous mid cycle meetups as PTL
* 3 terms of experience as elected PTL for Solum
* Involved with OpenStack since Austin Design Summit in 2010

What background and skills help me to continue this role well:

* Over 20 years of experience in technical leadership positions
* Unmatched experience leading multi-organization collaborations
* Diplomacy skills for inclusion of numerous viewpoints, and ability to drive 
consensus and shared vision
* Considerable experience in public speaking, including two keynotes at 
OpenStack Summits, and numerous appearances at other events.
* Leadership of collaborative OpenStack design summit sessions
* Deep belief in Open Source, Open Development, Open Design, and Open Community
* I love OpenStack and I love containers, probably more than anyone else in the 
world in this combination.

I come from a unique perspective of working with a team that released the first 
OpenStack based container solution in any public cloud: Carina by Rackspace. 
The operational lessons learned from operating our cloud at scale are 
profoundly informative for the direction we should head in Magnum as a 
compelling solution for cloud operators who want something that will work not 
just in a lab, but at scale with real production workloads. I am proud of this 
team and our accomplishments, and hope to share our experience and insight by 
leading open source contributions in OpenStack.

Those of you who have seem me in action know that I excel in a collaborative 
environment. I encourage discussion, raise minority viewpoints for 
consideration, and steer respectfully from my depth of experience. I strive to 
be inclusive, and to grow our community because I believe that our diversity 
makes us strong.

What to expect in the Newton release cycle:

We will continue to focus on developing a compelling combination OpenStack 
infrastructure and Container Orchestration software. We aim to combine the very 
best of both of these complimentary worlds. This requires a valuable vertical 
integration of container management tools with OpenStack. Here are key focus 
areas that I believe are important for us to work on during our next release:

* Furthering Magnum's production readiness. More documentation, more security 
hardening, more operational focus.
* Making Magnum more modular and extensible to allow for more choice for cloud 
operators.
* Storage integration. Leverage Cinder volumes for use by containers, and 
explore shared filesystem capability.
* Networking integration. Further leverage Neutron through Kuryr, and 
demonstrate ways to integrate alternative options.

I look forward to your vote, and to continued success together.

Thanks,

Adrian Otto

[openstack-dev] [magnum] PTL candidacy

2016-03-19 Thread Hongbin Lu
Hi,

I would like to announce my candidacy for the PTL position of Magnum.

To introduce myself, my involvement in Magnum began in December 2014, in which 
the project was at a very early stage. Since then, I have been working with the 
team to explore the roadmap, implement and refine individual components, and 
gradually grow the feature set. Along the way, I've developed comprehensive 
knowledge of the architecture and has led me to take more leadership 
responsibilities. In the past release cycle, I started taking some of the PTL 
responsibilities when the current PTL was unavailable. I believe my past 
experience shows that I am qualified for the Magnum PTL position.

In my opinion, Magnum's key objective is to pursue tight integration between 
OpenStack and the various Container Orchestration Engines (COE) such as 
Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, and Apache Mesos. Therefore, I would suggest to give 
priority to the features that will improve the integration in this regard. In 
particular, I would emphasize the following features:

* Neutron integration: Currently, Flannel is the only supported network driver  
for providing connectivity between containers in different hosts. Flannel is  
mostly used for overlay networking, and it has significant performance 
overhead. In the Newton cycle, I would suggest we collaborate with the Kuryr  
team to develop a non-overlay network driver.
* Cinder integration: Magnum supports using Cinder volume for storing container 
 images. We should add support for mounting Cinder volumes to containers as  
data volumes as well.
* Ironic integration: Add support for Ironic virt-driver to enable support for 
high-performance containers on baremetal servers. We identified this feature  
as a key feature in a few release cycles previously but unfortunately it  
hasn't been fully implemented yet.

In addition, I believe the items below are important and need attention in the 
Newton cycle:

* Pluggable architecture: Refine the architecture to make it extensible. As a 
result, third-party vendors can plugin their own flavor of COEs.
* Quality assurance: Improve coverage of integration and unit tests.
* Documentation: Add missing documents and enhance existing documents.
* Remove hard dependency: Eliminate hard dependency on Barbican by implementing 
a functional equivalent replacement. Note that this is a technical debt [1] and 
should be clean up in Newton cycle.
* Horizon UI: Enhance our Horizon plugin.
* Grow the community: Attract new contributors to Magnum.

In the long term, I hope to work towards the goal of making OpenStack become a 
compelling platform for hosting containerized applications. To achieve this 
goal, we need to identify and develop unique capabilities that could 
differentiate Magnum from its competitors, thus attracting users to move their 
container workloads to OpenStack. As an initial start, below is a list features 
that I believe we could explore. Please don't consider it as final decisions 
and we will definitely debate each of them. Also, you are always welcome to 
contribute your own list of requirements:

* Resource interconnection and orchestration: Support dynamically connecting 
COE-managed resources (i.e. a container) to OpenStack-managed resources (i.e. a 
Neutron network), thus providing the capabilities to link containerized 
applications to existing OpenStack infrastructure. By doing  that, we enable 
orchestrations across COE-managed resources and OpenStack-managed resources 
through a Heat template.
* Integrated authentication system: Integrate COE authentication system with 
Keystone, thus eliminating the pain of handling multiple authentication 
mechanism.
* Standard APIs: Hide the heterogeneity of various COEs and expose a unified 
interface to manage resources of various kinds.

Thank you for considering my PTL candidacy.
