[openstack-dev] [Freezer] PTL candidacy for Queens

[Saad Zaher]

Hi All,

I'm happy to announce my candidacy to be the Freezer PTL for the Queens
release
cycle.

The Freezer developers did a very good job over the past releases and I am
sure
they will continue doing an amazing job over the next release as well.

In the Pike release, we have implemented more than one engine for OpenStack
like (nova, cinder, cinder_OSbrick, rsync...)
In the Queens release we need to set more focus on enhancing these engines
and make it work better and add more features to these engines.
Also for the Queens cycle we need to add more features to freezer-dr to
support more use cases of the disaster recovery scenarios,
In Pike we have change a little bit to allow the addition of more features
in the new relases.

In the Queens cycle, I think we are going to focus on the following items:


* Enhancing core freezer-agent features and continue refactoring the
missing parts
  to allow pluggable architecture to support more engines and applications
in freezer.
  Some refactoring has already been done, also some new engines and storage
driver
  has been added, so we need to keep those engines/drivers well maintained,
enhanced and up to date!

* Completed the move from Elasticsearch to Oslo.db

* Relate the backups, jobs, sessions, resources to tenants not to users.


* Integration tests. We need to increase the work done on testing. This will
  help to stabilize Freezer.

* Documentation. We should target for a split, refactoring and global
  improvement of our docs, which is a required step to increase the size of
our
  community.

* Implement remote backups. Allow the users to use any instance of
freezer-agent
  to backup remote resources to any storage driver

* Deprecate CLI. Freezer-agent will accept jobs only through configuration
  files not through CLI.

* Allow the engines/storage drivers to register their own OPTS

I would be honoured to have your support.

Thanks,
Saad Zaher (szaher)

[openstack-dev] [Freezer] PTL Candidacy

[Saad Zaher]

Hello everyone,

I'm happy to announce my candidacy to be the Freezer PTL for the Pike
release
cycle.

The Freezer developers did a very good job over the past releases and I am
sure
they will continue doing an amazing job over the next release as well.

For the Pike release cycle, I think we need to focus more on backing up
OpenStack resources and adding more
backup engines to give more variety to OpenStack users, also we should
continue working on
the core freezer features to provide stabilization.

In this cycle we will give also more attention to freezer-dr, the disaster
recovery
part of freezer. It provides cloud administrators the capability to evacuate
VMs from failed compute nodes, we aim to take it to more than that and
support more severe disaster.


In order to achieve that, I think we should focus on:

* Enhancing core freezer-agent features and continue refactoring the
missing parts
  to allow pluggable architecture to support more engines and applications
in freezer.

* Move from Elasticsearch to Oslo.db

* Fully implement Oslo.policy

* Implement version 2 of freezer-api

* Integration tests. We need to increase the work done on testing. This will
  help to stabilize Freezer.

* Documentation. We should target for a split, refactoring and global
  improvement of our docs, which is a required step to increase the size of
our
  community.

* Focus on implementing OpenStack engine(s) to backup OpenStack resources.


I would be honoured to have your support.

Thanks,
Saad Zaher (szaher)
