Hi Craig,

In answer to your question:





*If Apache does incubate and graduate Yunikorn as a top level project, we
would require Cloudera to commit to recognize Yunikorn as an Apache project
in all of its materials. Otherwise, there would be confusion in the market
about whether Yunikorn was an Apache project or a Cloudera project. It
cannot be both.If Cloudera can commit to not using Yunikorn to describe its
own project once it graduates and becomes an Apache project, ok.If not, the
Apache project will need to find a new name.*
--
Cloudera can commit to using Apache YuniKorn if/when the YuniKorn project
graduates.

Thank you,
Casey

If Apache does incubate and graduate Yunikorn as a top level project, we would 
require Cloudera to commit to recognize Yunikorn as an Apache project in all of 
its materials. 

Otherwise, there would be confusion in the market about whether Yunikorn was an 
Apache project or a Cloudera project. It cannot be both.

If Cloudera can commit to not using Yunikorn to describe its own project once 
it graduates and becomes an Apache project, ok.

If not, the Apache project will need to find a new name.

 No you don’t need to submit an SGA before voting on the proposal, what
 we need is a clear indication that your name is unlikely to change and that
 it’s Cloudera intent to hand over rights to the name.The name would not
 need to be transferred until graduation.

Re: [DISCUSS] YuniKorn Proposal

Hi Folks,

Cloudera does not have a trademark on YuniKorn; we do use the name in a few
places with a quick look.  So there's no trademark assignment needed, but
if there is something else you'd like us to do related to any ownership
interest, please let me know.

That great. A long way off but just be aware that if these people are listed on 
the graduation proposal for PMC members and they have not been active in the 
project that may delay graduation.

No you don’t need to submit an SGA before voting on the proposal, what we need 
is a clear indication that your name is unlikely to change and that it’s 
Cloudera intent to hand over rights to the name.The name would not need to be 
transferred until graduation.

Re: [DISCUSS] YuniKorn Proposal

[Craig Russell]

Hi Wangda,

There is a distinction between licensing the code to Apache, which is done via 
SGA, and giving Apache rights to the name, which is done by a trademark 
assignment.

Apache in general will not use the name if Cloudera who owns the name intends 
to keep using it. Apache would need to rename the project if Cloudera intends 
to keep it.

The Yunikorn brand is currently in use by Cloudera. If you can clarify that 
Cloudera intends to assign the trademark to Apache, then we will need to have 
that in writing (in the proposal) and work with Trademarks to work on the 
trademark assignment.

Regards,
Craig

No concerns, we will continue to invest in this project as it is important
to our product, and expanding the community with more diversities is on our
top of the priority

I think my previous response is not right, what I meant is:

*"The initial committers are from several relevant Apache projects who are
interested in YuniKorn and committed to giving guidance, suggestions to the
project, help to grow the community; and if possible, participants in code
development."*

They're aware of the PPMC requirements, I don't think there's any surprise
to proposed initial committers.

We have already got SGA (Software Grant Agreement) from Cloudera, I'm not
sure if we need to attach the SGA now, before vote or so. Is there any
additional documentation needed apart from SGA.

Fair enough. Are there any concerns along those lines given it still the same 
core set of developers that will be working on it?

> To answer what is the philosophy behind non-code committers we added.

The if possible concerns me. Are these people committed to being PPMC members 
or not? All initial commutes are PPMC members not just committers.

Do people on the initial committer list realise their responsibilities also 
include:
- voting on releases
- helping with board reports
- understand and applying ASF policies and values
- helping to grow the community
- voting on new committers and PPMC members

I not aware of the discussions that took place before this proposal come to the 
Incubator so everyone may already be aware and willing to do that.
However, if that’s not the case, it may be better to vote them in as 
committers/PPMC members once they make contributions to the project.

> We will add it to the proposal before a vote. We have done similar
> practices like a PODLINGNAMESEARCH. 

Great sounds good. Have you checked with Cloudera legal that they would be 
willing to hand the name over to the ASF?

We recently has a situation where a podling was unable to use it name a few 
months into incubation because of this and it caused Infra a lot of unnecessary 
work.

We added a committer Tao Yang after the project started. (See contribution
from Tao:
https://github.com/cloudera/yunikorn-core/commits?author=TaoYang526)

We actually did some releases, but on Docker Hub:
https://hub.docker.com/r/yunikorn/yunikorn-scheduler-k8s/tags. We didn't
put it to Github's release page.

The reason the number of contributors not significantly grow is the project
is hosted under cloudera.com, contributors from other companies are not
comfortable with contributing to other company's repo and even hesitate to
try that.

To answer what is the philosophy behind non-code committers we added.
- The initial committers are from several relevant Apache projects who are
interested in YuniKorn and committed to giving guidance, suggestions and
participant in the future if possible.

- Following folks are from YARN community (see following folks), we
collaborated on YARN scheduler for years and they have lots of domain
knowledge about scheduling. They're willing to give feedbacks and
suggestions to YuniKorn. And we already got tons of help and important
feedbacks from them.

Carlo Curino (cur...@apache.org) (Microsoft)
Subramaniam Krishnan (su...@apache.org) (Microsoft)
Arun Suresh (asur...@apache.org) (Microsoft)
Konstantinos Karanasos (kkarana...@apache.org) (Microsoft)
Jonathan Hung (jh...@apache.org) (LinkedIn)
Junping Du (junping...@apache.org) (Tencent)
Jason Lowe (jl...@apache.org) (Nvidia)

And DB Tsai is from Apache Spark community, getting Spark to integrate with
YuniKorn is very important task for us, and we need help from Spark
community. We received many valuable suggestions from DB about what the
project should go to better support batch workload like Spark.

Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli is helping the project from the beginning, from the
project execution, requirements and how to create a community,  we received
lots of suggestions and he volunteered to be the champion of the project.

We made most of the decisions on Github issues, PRs and code review
publically. On the Slack or catch up meetings we mostly discuss issues we
talk about bugs or product issues.

For planning, we also keep
https://github.com/cloudera/yunikorn-core/blob/master/docs/roadmap.md up to
date, so other community members can get that easier.

To better improve, we will make use of mailing list, etc. in the future
like other Apache project once be part of the Apache incubator. Which can
get other contributors participated and we want to build an open community
instead of making closed-door decisions.

That makes sense, and I didn't see any issue if more incubation time
needed. We want to graduate once it is ready to graduate.

We will add it to the proposal before a vote. We have done similar
practices like a PODLINGNAMESEARCH. We have done search of "YuniKorn" on
Github, nothing related to scheduler or distributed system. We also did a
search of YuniKorn as a trademark, no hit. And YuniKorn search on internet
also no relevant hit. Since the name is unique, easy to remember,
pronounce, and relevant to the project, we believe it is a good name.

I think we don't need to file PODLINGNAMESEARCH before the project

Re: [DISCUSS] YuniKorn Proposal

[Justin Mclean]

Hi,

Sounds like a good proposal.

I can see it was opened source back in March but you haven’t seemed to have 
made any releases or added any new committers since then. An I correct in that 
assumption? Is the any reason for that? I note in the proposal that you have 
people from other organisations that you say are already collaborating with you 
on Github, but I cannot see much if any activity from them. The core repo has 5 
main committers (and two others). The other repos are similar. As you note not 
all contribution are code, so I may be missing something. Can you explain how 
the initial committers were chosen and provide a bit more detail on their 
relationship to the project?

You mention the use of Slack, weekly catch up and open community meetings. How 
is the information discussed there passed on to other community members who are 
not on slack or not able to attend those meetings? Are any decisions made at 
those meetings or on Slack?

The length of time to incubate seems a little on the short side, especially for 
a project that doesn’t seem to have a large community around it and most of the 
core set of developers working for a single company. I’d be happy to be proven 
wrong about that, but if the project ended up in incubation for longer would 
this be an issue?. Projects typically spend 1 to 1 1/2 years in the incubator, 
some take less time some take more, some a lot more.

There’s at least one section missing from your proposal [1], the information on 
the project name is important, can you answer that? Infra in particular is 
concerned about the amount of effort a name change takes.

Your mentors need to be IPMC members [2][3] but as Dave notes, being ASF 
members they can ask to join the IPMC.

Thanks,
Justin

[DISCUSS] YuniKorn Proposal

[Weiwei Yang]

Greetings folks:

Please consider the following proposal, which is also on the wiki

 [1].
I look forward to hearing feedback from you.


*YuniKorn - An Unified Resource Scheduler*

1. Abstract
YuniKorn is a standalone resource scheduler responsible for scheduling
batch jobs and long-running services on large scale distributed systems
running in on-premises environments as well as different public clouds.

2. Proposal
YuniKorn ['ju:nikɔ:n] is a unified resource scheduler aiming to achieve
fine-grained resource sharing for various workloads efficiently on a large
scale, multi-tenant and cloud-native environments. YuniKorn brings a
unified, cross-platform scheduling experience for mixed workloads, with
support for but not limited to, Apache™ Hadoop® YARN and Kubernetes.

Currently, YuniKorn is an open-source project with Apache 2.0 license. The
source code is hosted as a git-repo under the github.com/cloudera domain.
We would like to share it with the ASF and expand the community to a wider
range of users and contributors.

2.1 Background
Enterprise users run their workloads on different platforms such as Apache™
Hadoop® YARN and Kubernetes. They need to work with different resource
schedulers in order to plan their workloads to run on these platforms
efficiently. The scheduler implementations are fragmented, and not
optimized to balance existing use-cases like batch workloads along with new
needs such as cloud-native architecture, autoscaling, etc. We need a single
resource planning/management framework to manage resources on different
platforms using the same semantics, in order to address all the important
resource management requirements.

2.2 Rationale
There is no solution that exists now to address the needs of having a
unified resource scheduling experiences across platforms. That makes it
difficult to manage workloads running on different environments, from
on-premise to Cloud. YuniKorn aims to satisfy these needs. YuniKorn is
designed around the following principles:

1) Support different environments
As the compute platforms are evolving quickly, there are more and more
challenges appear in on-prem, cloud or hybrid environments. YuniKorn aims
to bring unified scheduling experiences across multiple environments with
enhanced scheduling capabilities.

2) Support extensive types of workloads
To improve the efficiency of the computing platform, a key idea is to run
different types of applications, like long-running services and batch jobs,
on shared resources. YuniKorn is an effort to address all the scheduling
features needed for such mixed workload environments.

3) Benefit both big-data and cloud-native communities
A resource scheduler needs to be capable of supporting mixed workloads,
both batch, and long-running services. This is the key to improving cluster
utilization, and to reduce the complexity of dev-ops. By creating a common
scheduler that is decoupled from the container platforms underneath, it can
benefit both Apache™ Hadoop® YARN and the Kubernetes communities.

2.3 Initial Goals
Initial goals are:
 - Move the existing codebase, documentation to Apache hosted repo
 - Set up mailing lists, website, CI/CD pipeline under Apache infrastructure
 - Setup JIRA for issue tracking
 - Incremental development and releases according to Apache guidelines
 - Expand the community and bring more diversified contributors/users to
the community

2.4 Current Status

2.4.1 Meritocracy
Many of the initial developers of YuniKorn are already Apache committers
and PMC members from other Apache projects, such as Apache Hadoop and
Apache Submarine. Many of us have worked in the Apache Hadoop community for
years and know the Apache way well. We believe strongly in meritocracy in
electing committers and PMC members. We believe that contributions can come
in forms other than just code: for example, one of our initial proposed
committers has contributed solely in the area of project documentation. We
will encourage contributions and participation of all types, and ensure
that contributors are appropriately recognized.

2.4.2 Community
YuniKorn is a relatively new open source project, Cloudera is the original
development sponsor for YuniKorn. From the beginning of the project itself,
we had clearly aimed to have this as an open-source project, so we started
to build the community from the very early stages. We received a lot of
feedback and valuable suggestions from other community members while the
project was hosted as an open-source project on GitHub. This feedback has
greatly influenced some of our designs. For e.g, developers from Alibaba
had been involved in the very early stage of development, lots of effort
related to performance/throughput enhancement were contributed by them.
Lots of other organizations further showed their interest to join the
community once we started talking about it in meetups, conferences, etc.

2.4.3 Core developer
