Open Stack

Hi,

I'd like to nominate myself for Tacker PTL for 2024.1 cycle.

I've contributed to Tacker as a PTL to provide a generic VNF Manager to 
industiries. We have implemented
or improved several features such as monitoring with Prometheus for 
containers or policy management
for multi domain usecases in addition to introduce the latest ETSI-NVF 
standard compliant features.
We also revised unstable unit/functional tests for which we have been 
suffered several times for
unexpected failures and waste of time as one of the our goals for 
efficiency of our development,
and documents for users to demonstrate usecases in practical examples.

In the next cycle, I'd like to continue to improving Tacker for the 5G 
network includes both a
radio-access network and a core network to provide operators as we've 
focused on.
Deploying Tacker as Service Management and Orchestration (SMO) in O-RAN 
architecture is one of
our plans for realizing the scenario. Tacker team has already 
contributed to ETSI NFV
and O-RAN SC communities while getting feedbacks from them and enforced 
relationship among them gradually. I'd appreciate if we make some more 
progress for OpenStack and these communities.
