Have been worked for Tungsten Fabric over 1 year, delivered pure software performance suite for Tungsten in community, and drove the 1st Tungsten open lab online, which was announced in KubeConf 2018 in PRC. I want to continue to drive a better CI for community, analyze and optimize Tungsten vRouter performance, and show Tungsten performance improvement with optimization/new hardware platform/new NIC in open lab.

Short Bio: 

Edward Ting is a senior engineering manager at Lenovo (a Linux Foundation Platinum member) Datacenter Group leading Lenovo Tungsten Fabric based SDN Controller development for 2+ years.

Since the beginning, Edward has led the team to contribute 50+ security vulnerability fixes; authored security vulnerability blueprint; published R5.0.1 Release Notes and Getting Started Guide. Also since November 2017, Edward has been dedicated in participating TSC weekly calls and seeking every possible opportunity to contribute to the community. In addition, Edward has been promoting Tungsten Fabric in both Bay Area as well as overseas. They are:

  1. May 2018: hosted the Open Source Networking Q2 Meetup to promote Tungsten Fabric.
  2. Sep. 2018: gave a talk to demonstrate the feature of Tungsten Fabric device manager at Open Source Networking Q3 Meetup.
  3. Nov. 2018: gave talks at Tungsten Fabric co-lo events at KubeCon Shanghai and GNTC Nanjing in China.
  4. Nov. 2018: gave 2 talks in Taiwan to promote Tungsten Fabric.

Before Lenovo, Edward was at Ericsson responsible for Ericsson vRouter DPDK initial bring-up as well the team lead for OpenStack & VMware cloud automation for DevOps. Prior to Ericsson, Edward was a principal engineer and development manager at Symantec for the secure gateway product line.

Statement of Intent: 

Edward will be focusing on the following two areas:

.1. Delivering pure community releases that the community can build and consume. Currently not everything has version control nor hast the source code tagging covers everything. This must be fixed ASAP so everybody can reliably build community releases.

2.  Actively address security vulnerabilities. Currently the scorecard on Tungsten Fabric is insecure. It is due to old 3 party packages, outdated code, and development discipline. Edward want to enable CI/CD to scan security vulnerability for the code commits as well as community releases.

The goal is to have a secure and reliable releases the community can easily consume.
