Hi Andres, Welcome! I'm really excited about seeing Accumulo on Ambari and generic extensions to Ambari itself to make this happen. I appreciate the level of detail in the GSoC proposal. It's great that you have Billie as your mentor. I can help you with the Web UI portion of the project if you'd like.
