introductions

[Adrian Cole <ad...@gmail.com>]

Sounds funny to do this, but a chat conversation made me realize we
may never meet each other in person. For those who are comfortable
introducing themselves including where they live on a public forum,
I'd welcome this, especially IPMC. No pressure if you feel
uncomfortable.

I'll start.

I'm Adrian and I accidentally walked in to tracing while working at
Twitter when I lived in San Francisco. The project was a few years
old, but needed re-owning.. since then (about March 2015), I've not
stopped working on Zipkin. I moved companies to Pivotal, then moved to
Georgetown Malaysia as well. It is easy for me to work on Zipkin
because Pivotal sponsors my salary and routinely covers my travel to
things like workshops and such. I'm very grateful for that. Truth be
told, I am most interested in the community itself, you all keep me
engaged even during the hard times of which there are many :P So,
thanks..

I had experience in Apache before as I founded Apache jclouds. I am
not completely happy with how I handled the transition into the
incubator. I was impatient and sometimes not nice during the stressful
moments, so I stepped down. I harbor some guilt about that still,
though I try to shake it off for experience. Best advice I can give to
folks new to the process is to be patient through acclimation and
remember ASF is a volunteer organization. Anyway, I'm back and aim to
be a better me.

I am Wu Sheng(wu-sheng), first of all, I am not a code contributor in Zipkin, but intend, want and hope to be a committer and PPMC menber of Zipkin.
In Zipkin, I am doing code review, discussion and offering helps about metric and topology analysis.


I am working as a tech and open source consultant in Bitmain, which is the biggest cryptocurrency in the world, 
also I am a founding engineer at tetrate.io, which is a startup company focusing on providing mesh services with Istio, Envoy and SkyWalking.
In open source world, I am the original creator of Apache SkyWalking(incubating) and Sharding-Sphere(head to incubating now). SkyWalking is very similar with
Zipkin field about tracing, but focus on APM analysis and visualization more. I am learning the ASF rules and trying to help other project through the incubating stage.
The whole Zipkin community supports and helps me and SkyWalking a lot, thanks so much, especially for Adrian, Mick, Bas, José Carlos Chávez.

Re: introductions

[Zoltán Nagy <ab...@apache.org>]

*coughs nervously, shuffles feet*
*adjusts mic, awkward silence*

I'm Zoltán Nagy (@abesto), currently Production Engineer at Facebook
in London, for all of ~7 weeks now (and nothing I say or do represents
FB, etc etc). Before that I played infrastructure tech-lead /
architect at Prezi in Budapest, Hungary, where we tried to use Zipkin
back in uhh... 2015? Maybe 2014. To do that we built a half-shitty
Django client (I'm OK calling it that 'cause I wrote most of it), but
unfortunately at that point the balance of Zipkin maturity and
manpower available for the project at Prezi meant it didn't really go
anywhere.

Still, when Adrian started pushing OpenZipkin properly, I felt that
this is a project "the world needs", so helped out over the years
where I could. That's almost exclusively automation and tooling around
the website, builds, tests, and releases; and some operational stuff
like some Docker or observability things here or there. I'm investing
significantly less time into Zipkin than what the project would
deserve, and feel bad about that, and have no workable plan to make
that better, so, y'know, it's what it is.

Also zero experience with ASF, I'm very curious to watch the whole
incubation process, and help where I can.

*accidentally drops mic, gets scared by the noise, carefully puts it
back on the stand and shuffles away*

Hi All,

I'm Brian Devins-Suresh, I (currently, stay tuned) work at Dealer.com/Cox
Automotive in Burlington Vermont in the
US. I got involved with Zipkin and Brave in late 2015. My team at the time
was building developer tooling and
owning some of the core applications. We built out our tracing capability
as a proof of concept and added it to all
of the core applications that we owned. We hoped at the time that we would
prove the value and convince other
teams to adopt but that unfortunately never happened. We were able to find
multiple problems in those
applications, including a couple methods that caused significant GC
pressure. We failed to get buy in from other
teams in the organization though. I believe at this point our original
implementation has been disabled and
decommissioned.

Since then my team has moved onto working in AWS building out the Cox
Automotive platform. To aide in the effort
I've been focused on building the zipkin-aws components. My architect
doesn't like to run software we didn't write
so I have been targeting XRay with our library. We use sleuth but have our
own starter with the AWS components
wired up with our

I have no experience working within the Apache incubator, or any TLPs
beyond being subscribed to a users list. I
hope to be able to be involved in growing this community.

Re: introductions

[Kristof Adriaenssens <kr...@gmail.com>]

I'm Kristof and I learned about Zipkin and the Dapper paper in 2013 while
working at Tomtom in Belgium.
I'm the original author of Brave. I built Brave so I could get insight into
our services and reuse the Twitter components (collector, web, ui).
I remember how amazed I was when I could first visualize production
requests and how what we built was way more complex as I had imagined :)

It is because of my work on Brave that I got noticed by and got in contact
with SoundCloud.
I joined SoundCloud in September 2014 and moved to Berlin.  One of the
first things I did at SoundCloud was packaging and deploying the Zipkin
components
and enabling our Finagle services to start sending spans. After the initial
set up I started working on other things and our Zipkin set up remained
stagnant for a long time.

When Adrian got involved with Zipkin he reached out to me and soon started
contributing to Brave and the other Zipkin projects.  I was impressed from
the start with how Adrian reached out and involved the community, set out
the direction, and brought the project where it is now.  In July 2015 I
moved Brave from my personal GitHub to OpenZipkin. I kept working on Brave
till probably around end 2015 and stopped most involvement after that point
because of other priorities at work and in my private life.

I kept following Zipkin and the Distributed Tracing space from a distance
and got a bit more involved again recently as part of Using Kubernetes Pod
Metadata to Improve Zipkin Traces
<https://developers.soundcloud.com/blog/using-kubernetes-pod-metadata-to-improve-zipkin-traces>
.

I have used many Apache projects throughout my career, as most of you
probably, but I was never part of transitioning a project into a ASF
project.


Cheers,
Kristof

 my name is Mick and I'm notorious late and slow to everything ;)

My involvement with Zipkin started back in 2015 alongside Eirik Sletteberg at Finn.no in Norway, and have been following Adrian and his solid work from the first OpenZipkin workshop in Budapest til the current day.

Since leaving Norway and Finn.no in 2015 I've been a consultant at The Last Pickle where we help clients with their Apache Cassandra platforms. That expertise on Cassandra helped design the new Cassandra backend schema for Zipkin2. 

I given a number of presentations at different conferences on Zipkin, and it is definitely one of my favourite technologies to talk about. If you have any questions about using the Cassandra backend to Zipkin reach out!

I've been keen on open source for a while now, going back as far as being the community elected Governance Board member for NetBeans shortly after it was open sourced in 2002 (how cool is it that it too is now in the Incubator). Was involved in the Tigris open source community with the Scarab issue tracker project, and more recently with Apache as a VP, PMC, Committer and Member,  involved in Tiles, Cassandra, and the Incubator (SkyWalking and Zipkin) now.

I live in a little town called Sawtell on Australia's east coast and spend many of my non-working hours in the ocean. Nature based activities is always a successful conversation starter with me :-)

Mick.

Re: introductions

[ba...@tobin.nl]

I’m Bas van Beek and got introduced to Zipkin when working on a large project early 2017 using
micro services architecture mostly built with the Go kit toolkit. I noticed Go kit had some
issues with its tracing middleware and from there on started my deep dive into distributed
tracing with an incredible amount of help from Adrian Cole who mentored me into the
domain. Even though the project got scrapped due to vendor politics and a large
company deal I stayed on board in my spare time as maintainer of Go kit and Zipkin. 
Within the distributed  tracing space I’m mostly known for my work on the 
zipkin-go-opentracing and zipkin-go libraries.

I live in the Netherlands in a small city called Amersfoort, have an understanding wife
and two great kids (9 and 7 years old). 

My current company doesn’t support any of my OSS work so unfortunately I do not
have as much time for Zipkin as I’d like. The company owns and operates events
mainly of the running kind. Next to being a minority share holder I work as the main
architect of the results and timing ecosystem for these races. I’ve been in the running
industry for quite some time and if you’ve run any road race chances are very big
you’re running experience got touched by some of the hardware and/or software I 
developed over the years. 

I have very little experience with Apache as an organization. I have had an ICLA on file
for quite some years due to previous contributions to Apache Cordova (mainly fixing
some bugs I encountered) but that’s about it.

I’ll try to be calm and not try to rush things through with respect to Apache. As an
entrepreneur and having bootstrapped a couple of companies from the ground up
I’m not very well known for patience or next level organization. I typically leave
when structuring is required after company incubation phase. 

Cheers,

Bas
