Additional work was also done to implement an OpenStack driver for the Cluster API effort lead by SIG Cluster Lifecycle. For the external Cloud-Provider-OpenStack code, the SIG largely focused on bug fixes and updates to match K8s 1.13 development.

### SIG Scalability

		// as a List() call is an important performance improvement.
		//
		// Spark based s3a committers are a  big enough use-case to have this optimization.
		//
		// A sample code to see the improvements is as follows, this sample code is
		// simply a read on JSON from MinIO and write it back as "parquet".
		//
		// import org.apache.spark.sql.SparkSession
