= ServiceComb Proposal =

== Abstract ==

ServiceComb is a microservice framework that provides a set of tools and
components to make development and deployment of cloud applications easier.
It provides functionalities such as service contract enforcement, service
registration, service discovery, load balance, service reliability (latency
and fault tolerance, flow control and graceful degradation, handler chain
tracing), eventual data consistency and so forth.

== Proposal ==

The goal of this proposal is to bring the existing ServiceComb codebase and
existing developers into the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) in order to
build a vibrant, diverse and self-governed open source community around the
technology.
So far the major contributors to the project have been affiliated with
Huawei and Huawei is planning to continue market and sell the Cloud Service
Engine leveraging the ServiceComb framework.
ServiceComb is currently a registered trademark owned by Huawei, and Huawei
is happy to donate this trademark to Apache.

Huawei is submitting this proposal to donate the Service source code and
associated artifacts (documentation, web site content, wiki, etc.) to the
Apache Software Foundation Incubator under the Apache License, Version 2.0
and is asking Incubator PMC to establish an open source community. These
artifacts are currently available on GitHub at
https://github.com/ServiceComb/ and include:
 * Java Chassis: a multi-protocol (RPC & Restful) microservice framework
which adopts contract-first design
 * Service Center: a service registry that enforces service contract upon
service registration and discovery
 * Saga: a distributed coordinator to achieve eventual data consistency
based on the paper "Sagas" by Hector Garcia-Molina and Kenneth Salem
 * ServiceComb.github.io:  the website repo of ServiceComb.
 * The other projects will be moved to another place if ServiceComb is
accepted by Apache as an incubator project.

== Background ==

Microservices is a variant of the service-oriented architecture (SOA)
architectural style that structures an application as a collection of
loosely coupled services. ServiceComb is an open source microservice
framework initiated as part of Huawei CSE projects (Cloud Service Engine)
which was developed in 2015. It is a part of ServiceStage of Huawei Public
Cloud which is one-stop PaaS platform for enterprises and developers.
Besides ServiceStage, it’s  also used in the Huawei Core Network IOT
Platform and Huawei consumer cloud. The number of  companies using
ServiceComb to develop their enterprise applications, they are
chinasofti.com, isoftstone.com, pactera.com,zbj.com,movit-tech.com, and the
number is over 5 and counting.

== Rationale ==

ServiceComb has been developed as a total, open source solution for
developing cloud native applications. So far ServiceComb has existed as a
GitHub project with committers mostly working for Huawei. We feel that
moving it to a neutral organization like Apache, with its strong governance
model, is expected to help get more contributions from various
organizations and developers, who may be concerned by exclusive control of
ServiceComb by Huawei.

== Initial Goals ==

Our initial goals are to bring ServiceComb into the ASF, transition
internal engineering processes into the open, and foster a collaborative
development model according to the "Apache Way." Huawei and the current
contributors to ServiceComb plan to develop new functionality in an open,
community-driven way. To get there, the existing internal build, test and
release processes will be refactored to support open development.

 1. More specifically, our initial plan of moving ServiceComb to ASF is
focused on:
 2. open up the governance model in order to simplify and streamline
contributions from the community
 3.

= ServiceComb Proposal =

== Abstract ==

ServiceComb is a microservice framework that provides a set of tools and
components to make development and deployment of cloud applications easier.
It provides functionalities such as service contract enforcement, service
registration, service discovery, load balance, service reliability (latency
and fault tolerance, flow control and graceful degradation, handler chain
tracing), eventual data consistency and so forth.

== Proposal ==

The goal of this proposal is to bring the existing ServiceComb codebase and
existing developers into the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) in order to
build a vibrant, diverse and self-governed open source community around the
technology.
So far the major contributors to the project have been affiliated with
Huawei and Huawei is planning to continue market and sell the Cloud Service
Engine leveraging the ServiceComb framework.
ServiceComb is currently a registered trademark owned by Huawei, and Huawei
is happy to donate this trademark to Apache.

Huawei is submitting this proposal to donate the Service source code and
associated artifacts (documentation, web site content, wiki, etc.) to the
Apache Software Foundation Incubator under the Apache License, Version 2.0
and is asking Incubator PMC to establish an open source community. These
artifacts are currently available on GitHub at
https://github.com/ServiceComb/ and include:
  * Java Chassis: a multi-protocol (RPC & Restful) microservice framework
which adopts contract-first design
  * Service Center: a service registry that enforces service contract upon
service registration and discovery
  * Saga: a distributed coordinator to achieve eventual data consistency
based on the paper "Sagas" by Hector Garcia-Molina and Kenneth Salem
  * ServiceComb.github.io:  the website repo of ServiceComb.
  * The other projects will be moved to another place if ServiceComb is
accepted by Apache as an incubator project.

== Background ==

Microservices is a variant of the service-oriented architecture (SOA)
architectural style that structures an application as a collection of
loosely coupled services. ServiceComb is an open source microservice
framework initiated as part of Huawei CSE projects (Cloud Service Engine)
which was developed in 2015. It is a part of ServiceStage of Huawei Public
Cloud which is one-stop PaaS platform for enterprises and developers.
Besides ServiceStage, it’s  also used in the Huawei Core Network IOT
Platform and Huawei consumer cloud. The number of  companies using
ServiceComb to develop their enterprise applications, they are
chinasofti.com, isoftstone.com, pactera.com,zbj.com,movit-tech.com, and the
number is over 5 and counting.

== Rationale ==

ServiceComb has been developed as a total, open source solution for
developing cloud native applications. So far ServiceComb has existed as a
GitHub project with committers mostly working for Huawei. We feel that
moving it to a neutral organization like Apache, with its strong governance
model, is expected to help get more contributions from various
organizations and developers, who may be concerned by exclusive control of
ServiceComb by Huawei.

== Initial Goals ==

Our initial goals are to bring ServiceComb into the ASF, transition
internal engineering processes into the open, and foster a collaborative
development model according to the "Apache Way." Huawei and the current
contributors to ServiceComb plan to develop new functionality in an open,
community-driven way. To get there, the existing internal build, test and
release processes will be refactored to support open development.

  1. More specifically, our initial plan of moving ServiceComb to ASF is

[VOTE] Accept ServiceComb into the Apache Incubator

[Willem Jiang]

Hi All,

I would like to start a VOTE to bring the ServiceComb project in as an
Apache incubator podling.

The ASF voting rules are described:

https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html

A vote for accepting a new Apache Incubator podling is a majority vote for
which only Incubator PMC member votes are binding.

This vote will run for at least 72 hours. Please VOTE as follows
[] +1 Accept ServiceComb into the Apache Incubator
[] +0 Abstain.
[] -1 Do not accept ServiceComb into the Apache Incubator because ...

The proposal is listed below, but you can also access it on the wiki:

https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/ServiceCombProposal

Best regards,

Willem Jiang

= ServiceComb Proposal =

== Abstract ==

ServiceComb is a microservice framework that provides a set of tools and
components to make development and deployment of cloud applications easier.
It provides functionalities such as service contract enforcement, service
registration, service discovery, load balance, service reliability (latency
and fault tolerance, flow control and graceful degradation, handler chain
tracing), eventual data consistency and so forth.

== Proposal ==

The goal of this proposal is to bring the existing ServiceComb codebase and
existing developers into the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) in order to
build a vibrant, diverse and self-governed open source community around the
technology.
So far the major contributors to the project have been affiliated with
Huawei and Huawei is planning to continue market and sell the Cloud Service
Engine leveraging the ServiceComb framework.
ServiceComb is currently a registered trademark owned by Huawei, and Huawei
is happy to donate this trademark to Apache.

Huawei is submitting this proposal to donate the Service source code and
associated artifacts (documentation, web site content, wiki, etc.) to the
Apache Software Foundation Incubator under the Apache License, Version 2.0
and is asking Incubator PMC to establish an open source community. These
artifacts are currently available on GitHub at
https://github.com/ServiceComb/ and include:
 * Java Chassis: a multi-protocol (RPC & Restful) microservice framework
which adopts contract-first design
 * Service Center: a service registry that enforces service contract upon
service registration and discovery
 * Saga: a distributed coordinator to achieve eventual data consistency
based on the paper "Sagas" by Hector Garcia-Molina and Kenneth Salem
 * ServiceComb.github.io:  the website repo of ServiceComb.
 * The other projects will be moved to another place if ServiceComb is
accepted by Apache as an incubator project.

== Background ==

Microservices is a variant of the service-oriented architecture (SOA)
architectural style that structures an application as a collection of
loosely coupled services. ServiceComb is an open source microservice
framework initiated as part of Huawei CSE projects (Cloud Service Engine)
which was developed in 2015. It is a part of ServiceStage of Huawei Public
Cloud which is one-stop PaaS platform for enterprises and developers.
Besides ServiceStage, it’s  also used in the Huawei Core Network IOT
Platform and Huawei consumer cloud. The number of  companies using
ServiceComb to develop their enterprise applications, they are
chinasofti.com, isoftstone.com, pactera.com,zbj.com,movit-tech.com, and the
number is over 5 and counting.

== Rationale ==

ServiceComb has been developed as a total, open source solution for
developing cloud native applications. So far ServiceComb has existed as a
GitHub project with committers mostly working for Huawei. We feel that
moving it to a neutral organization like Apache, with its strong governance
model, is expected to help get more contributions from various
organizations and developers, who may be concerned by exclusive control of
ServiceComb by Huawei.

== Initial Goals ==

Our initial goals are to bring ServiceComb into the ASF, transition
internal engineering processes into the open, and foster a collaborative
development model according to the "Apache Way." Huawei and the current
contributors to ServiceComb plan to develop new functionality in an open,
community-driven way. To get there, the existing internal build, test and
release processes will be refactored to support open development.

 1. More specifically, our initial plan of moving ServiceComb to ASF is
focused on:
 2. open up the governance model in order to simplify and streamline
contributions from the community
 3. move the existing codebase to Apache
 4. integrate with the Apache development process
 5. ensure all dependencies are compliant with Apache License version 2.0
 6. incremental development and releases per Apache guideline

== Current Status ==

=== Meritocracy ===

We intend to substantially expand the initial developer and user community
by running the project in line with the "Apache Way". Users and new
contributors will be treated with respect and welcomed. By participating in
the community and
