The Accumulo community decided to draft the Apache community reports on the Accumulo dev list – and this is a draft of the January report for review / comments.
The text below is copied from the reporting tool and may not reflect the final formatting of the final report when submitted. Ed Coleman --- report tool text --- ## Description: The mission of Apache Accumulo is the creation and maintenance of software related to a robust, scalable, distributed key/value store with cell-based access control and customizable server-side processing. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention. ## Membership Data: Apache Accumulo was founded 2012-03-21 (11 years ago) There are currently 41 committers and 39 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 6:5. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Christopher L. Shannon on 2022-09-27. - No new committers. Last addition was Christopher L. Shannon on 2022-09-27. Members transitioned to emeritus: - Arvind Shyamsundar (arvindsh) - David Medinets (medined) ## Project Activity: Accumulo has started discussions and work to change the processing model to support dynamic scaling and provide elasticity. The Accumulo Confluence space[1] was activated to host the design documents and provide a collaboration platform for developers and users. The goal is to move from a model where active table metatdata and table data management is hosted in active processes to a model that can dynamically scale server components on-demand to provide configurable latency and higher scalability. Upcoming planned releases expected in the next quarter. - Maintenance releases of 1.10.3 and 2.1.1, (The legacy 1.x line will reach end-of-life on 2022-11-01) - The 3.0 release is planned to be a removal of deprecated items as permitted by semver, but with minimal other changes. The 3.0 release will be a baseline for redesign work but the community has not decided if the redesign would be a 3.1 or a 4.0 release. Those discussions will occur as the design continues to evolve ## Community Health: Overall community health is good and GitHub activity remains consistent. - The current decline in GitHub activity is due to quiet post-release activity and work concentrating on a redesign efforts, including activity occurring on Confluence - Accumulo has transitioned from Jira to GitHub issues. The remaining Jira activity reflects closing obsolete issues. ## Links [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ACCUMULO/Apache+Accumulo+Home
