Re: Another ~charmers application! - Chris Glass

[Liam Young]

Hi Chris,

tl;dr Unequivocal +1 from me

I'm really pleased to see you're application here as it gives me the 
opportunity to say thank you for all the Openstack charm reviews you've 
done for me and all of your contributions to the Openstack charms and to 
charm helpers.


I have found that merge proposals from Chris are always of a very high 
quality and well thought through and he is always open to suggestions.


The reviews that I have received in turn from Chris are thorough and 
considered and he's not afraid to point out areas that could be improved 
and offer helpful tips.


I have no doubt he'll be an asset to ~charmers

Hi all,

It's my turn to apply for ~charmers membership.

I have been using juju since the pyjuju days, mostly professionally
but also for my personal use.

Most of my contributions to the charm ecosystem stem from my current
work position as a software engineer for Canonical, as part of the
Landscape team:

1. Contributing to our own landscape and landscape-client charms (I am
a member of ~landscape-charmers)
2. Heavy contributions to the storage subordinate (refactoring and
extra features).
3. Working with OpenStack charms daily, and as such had the
opportunity to find, trace and fix a variety of bugs in them. (I'm a
member of ~openstack-charmers).
4. charm-helpers is of particular interest to me, and I have
undertaken to explore, tidy and refactor that code, since it appears
to have grown organically in the past, and accumulated a bit of
technical debt.

 From the personal use side, I'm also the author of the ubuntu-mirror
charm announced a few days ago, that I use to deploy and maintain an
official ubuntu archives mirror. As most programmers I have a few
other projects up my sleeve, but all of them might not become public
before a bit more time.

Outside of charming I'm an Ubuntu member and contributor, dad of one,
and world traveler. Python has been my tool of choice these last few
years, and before joining Canonical I've used puppet, vCenter
Orchestrator, chef, and crowbar quite extensively. The last few items
should give a hint as to where my previous professional positions were
held :)

Thanks for your consideration, time and awesome work,

Best,

- Chris

Recommendation engine on top hdp-hadoop-cluster and mahout

[Samuel Cozannet]

Hi All,

Following the announcement of the latest HDP Hadoop bundle by LazyPower and
Amir, I built a demo to run a recommendation engine on top of it.

You can find the code here :
https://github.com/SaMnCo/juju-hadoop-recommendation-engine

Notes:
* The script will install Mahout and Snappy compression lib. This will in
the end be included in the charm.
* It has to run once to learn the recommendation from the source file
* The output is a big matrix and there is a small python script provided to
extract meaningful results
* Wait until the YARN resource manager is started before installing and
running
* Tested on AWS only
* The initial workload uses 100k movie recommendations but there are 1M and
10M files available (see config in the demo script)
* The inspiration for this was built for Hadoop Vanilla. Most things can be
ported to that environment as well.

If anyone is willing to help on a small web GUI, that could make a nice
demo for our beloved SEs.

Hope you like it!
Best,
Sam

Chris has been a member of ~landscape-charmers and ~openstack-charmers
for a while now.  He even shows up as one of the top contributors to
charm-helpers, which he introduced to me.  :)

His contributions and reviews are always well done, and if that weren't
enough, he's setting up ubuntu mirrors in Africa with the help of charms
he's been authoring.

He will make a valuable addition to ~charmers, +1

That sounds like the best approach - we did something similar for
cinder backends - see the cinder and cinder-ceph or cinder-vmware charms.
