| <span class="post-date-author">By Tomaz Muraus <span style="display:none">(<a href="https://plus.google.com/+TomazMuraus?rel=author">Google+</a>)</span>on Nov 18, 2015</span> |
| |
| <div class="post-content"> |
| <p>Please help us extend a warm welcome to our newest team member <a href="https://github.com/tonybaloney">Anthony |
| Shaw</a>!</p> |
| |
| <p>The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache Libcloud has invited Anthony |
| Shaw to join us as a committer and a PMC member and we are pleased to announce |
| that he has accepted.</p> |
| |
| <p>Anthony has joined the community fairly recently, but he has already made a lot |
| of <a href="https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Atonybaloney+is%3Aclosed">substantial contributions</a>. Those contributions range from new Dimension |
| Data drivers and various related improvements to a proposal for a new <a href="https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/629">backup |
| API</a> for Backup as a Service products and projects.</p> |
| |
| <p>While we are talking about the new backup API - we would like to encourage |
| everyone who is either a service provider offering Backup as a Service product |
| or a person interested in using this API to join us and <a href="https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/629">participate in the |
| discussion</a>. The more feedback we get, the better and more widely applicable |
| we can make this new API.</p> |
| |
| <p>For anyone who would like to know more about Anthony here is his short bio:</p> |
| |
| <blockquote> |
| <p>Anthony Shaw works for the global system integrator Dimension Data as Head of |
| Innovation. Anthony has been working in the hosting/service provider industry |
| for the last 10 years for MSPs within Europe, North America and Australia in |
| various Product Management and Product Development roles. Anthony is an |
| open-source advocate and has been promoting the Libcloud project internally to |
| Dimension Data for the last 9 months as well as maintaining its driver.</p> |
| </blockquote> |
| |
| <p>And in his own words:</p> |
| |
| <blockquote> |
| <p>I think we will continue to see consolidation in IaaS providers over the next |
| 12 months, so likelihood is the number of drivers will reduce, but the |
| importance of being cloud agnostic to people is becoming more apparent as some |
| are already being burnt by integrations into APIs that companies like Dell and |
| Ninefold have pulled the plug on. Libcloud is a key project for developers not |
| wanting to lock themselves too heavily to a vendor. I would also like to see |
| expansion of additional services like backup, load balancing and containers so |
| that users can still take advantages of these features through our driver.</p> |
| </blockquote> |
| |
| <p>We are happy to have him in our team and we are looking forward to his future |
| participation and contributions.</p> |
