All, I'd like to run for renewing my AC seat, as part of the 2021-02 election round. Name: Samuel Ortiz Email: sameo@linux.intel.com Background: I am a Principal Software Engineer working for Intel, where I work on several projects related to virtualization and containers: Kata Containers, rust-vmm and Cloud Hypervisor. I started to work on Kata Containers a few years ago, back when I initially led the Clear Containers project at Intel. Since then I have contributed to many different areas of the project, from core components like the virtcontainers package to integration work with the CRI-O and containerd projects. Together with the folks from hyper.sh, we began the Kata Containers journey with the ambitious goal of providing stronger isolation to cloud native workloads, with minimal overhead. Three years ago, this was a fairly innovative approach and at some point I stopped counting the number of hours that Xu, Eric, Peng or myself spent at conferences, meetups or foundation booths demonstrating how Kata Containers met that promise. I believe it is now time to bring the next generation of hardware isolation and confidentiality technologies to the cloud native ecosystem, and in the upcoming months I'd like to help the Kata Containers project reach that goal.
