Dear Apache Ranger Community, My name is *Surafel Temesgen*, and I’m pleased to introduce a project I’ve been working on called *Debo* — a lightweight, unified infrastructure management platform designed to monitor and control key components of the Hadoop and big data ecosystem, including *Apache Ranger*. ------------------------------ 💡 What is Debo?
*Debo* is a *desktop-based*, open-source tool (written in C) that delivers *real-time visibility* and *basic operational control* over various Hadoop ecosystem services. It currently supports: - *HDFS, YARN, Hive, Kafka* - *Flink, Spark, Zookeeper, HBase* - *Ranger, Atlas, Tez, Presto, Phoenix, Hue*, and others Debo aims to reduce operational overhead by providing a *unified CLI and GUI dashboard* that allows administrators and developers to monitor, interact with, and manage multiple distributed services from one place. ------------------------------ 📣 Incubator Proposal & Feedback Request Debo has been proposed to the *Apache Incubator* and is currently seeking *3 PMC sponsors*. You can read and join the ongoing discussion here: 🔗 https://lists.apache.org/thread/bp0rqvf4xvmdb3n1m2fzhwym95841s5v Although the project has not yet entered incubation, a *beta release* is coming soon with updated documentation and *enhanced support for Apache Ranger* features. ------------------------------ 🙏 Call for Feedback from the Ranger Community If you are a contributor or user of Apache Ranger, your feedback would be highly valuable. Specifically, I’d love your input on: - Ideas for improving Ranger integration (e.g., policy management, audit log visibility) - Pain points in current security administration workflows that Debo could help simplify - Desired features for security monitoring, policy editing, or alerting ------------------------------ 📺 Learn More You can stay updated and access tutorials via our YouTube channel: 👉 https://www.youtube.com/@Debo_teamwork Explore the full source code and roadmap on GitHub: 🛠️ https://github.com/Debo-et/debo-teamwork ------------------------------ 🔧 Coming Soon - Updated README.md with installation and usage instructions - Video tutorials for integrating Debo with Ranger - Advanced support for policy management and auditing tools within Debo ------------------------------ Thank you so much for your time and interest.
