Hi everyone,
Sorry for this late answer, I’ve been quite busy this week finalizing our
Octavia deployment.
Sure Trinh, whenever you want, I’ll be happy to help on this topic.
Michael, Adam, I’m glad to see that some of you already started to think
about that topic, I’ll be happy to help with any required
documentation/redaction. I can’t work on code for now as I honestly don’t
get allocated time for that currently as we’re in a launch period, but for
sure as our company is fairly large and worldwide spanned I can humbly give
you feedback about our expectations etc.
Kind regards,
G.
