Hi, All, I am glad to announce that Ajo Thomas has officially accepted our invitation and become an Apache Samza Committer now.
Ajo has made contributions to improve both Samza user experience and operability greatly. He added the partial update functionality to Samza Table API to allow field-level updates to stores. He developed the “Pipeline Drain” feature for cleaning up intermediate data and state before introducing backward incompatible changes. He is also actively working on the next release of Samza 1.8. Considering his contributions, the Samza PMC trusts Ajo with the responsibilities of a Samza Committer. Please join me to give him a warm welcome! Xinyu Liu on behalf of the Apache Samza PMC
