| 8 | <p>I'm excited to announce that I have taken a position at IBM. I will be | ||
| 9 | working closely with Jesse Proudman and Angel Diaz to deliver excellence | ||
| 10 | and innovation to IBM Cloud.</p> | ||
| 11 | |||
| 12 | <p>When I joined HP, it was with the intent to be involved in making sure that HP | ||
| 13 | invested its resources in OpenStack to good effect. Over the last 3.5 years | ||
| 14 | I'm proud of both what I've been able to accomplish and where | ||
| 15 | HP is with respect to OpenStack. In this, I believe my time at HP has been well | ||
| 16 | spent for me, for HP and for the OpenStack Community.</p> | ||
| 17 | |||
| 18 | <p>Recently, we were all sad when Joe Gordon left OpenStack. He left because he | ||
| 19 | had gotten in to OpenStack in the first place to take on Amazon in the Public | ||
| 20 | Cloud space, and was frustrated that most of the work was in service of | ||
| 21 | private cloud.</p> | ||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | <p>I agree with Joe. I believe that it is important for the industry that there | ||
| 24 | is at least one Open alternative to Amazon. I believe that in times such as | ||
| 25 | these it is essential to continue to be bold and swing for the stars. I do | ||
| 26 | not concede that Amazon has won the cloud. I do not believe that Amazon's story | ||
| 27 | is the story we need.</p> | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | <p>I believe that there is a Public Cloud story that can not only compete with | ||
| 30 | Amazon, but significantly exceed them ... and I intend to dive full steam into | ||
| 31 | proving it.</p> | ||
| 32 | |||
| 33 | <p>IBM agrees.</p> | ||
| 34 | <p>IBM is ready.</p> | ||
| 35 | <p>IBM wants me to be a part of shaping what comes next.</p> | ||
| 36 | |||
| 37 | <p>From the bottom of my heart I want to thank HP. Both I and OpenStack have grown | ||
| 38 | immeasurably during my time and together we've done some great things. I will | ||
| 39 | continue to wish HP all of the success and I look forward to continued | ||
| 40 | collaboration across OpenStack.</p> | ||
| 41 | |||
| 42 | <p>I'm excited about what tomorrow brings for me at IBM, and I can't wait to get | ||
| 43 | started.</p> | ||
