Name: David Alan Gilbert Email: dgilbert@redhat.com Introduction: I'm a Principal Software Engineer working for Red Hat in our virtualization team. I've been working on QEMU for the past 6 years, mostly in live migration but more recently working on the virtiofs project. I'm a QEMU maintainer for live migration, virtiofs and the HMP monitor. My previous work with Kata has mainly been in relation to virtiofs and helping debug CI issues on Red Hat/CentOS and Fedora. My primary interest is ensuring that hypervisors (QEMU included) provide the necessary features to enable Kata to operate securely and efficiently. I'm keen to understand the real-world uses of Kata, how virtiofs is used in practice and resolving any usage difficulties in those deployments. I look forward to promoting the wider usage of Kata and pushing its usage in the general enterprise and more specialist areas such as telecommunication systems.
