Looks like we have agreement to remove the link and refer to the download
page (as stated in this thread before, the DataTorrent download link is
already there).
I think there is no need to portray the DataTorrent sandbox as a charitable
effort in this discussion. You will be greeted with a "give
+1 on listing various sandboxes on download page. As Vlad pointed out,
there are examples in Hadoop and other Apache projects with vendor
sponsored/provided sandboxes:
Kudu - http://kudu.apache.org/docs/quickstart.html
Drill - https://drill.apache.org/docs/installing-the-apache-drill-sandbox/
Eag
+1 to have a link from doc to downloads page. It is also necessary to
limit downloads page to links to various binary distributions and move
the detailed steps from the download page to the site where downloads
point to.
Thank you,

I would argue that a link to a vendor sandbox or a download that makes
it easier to jump start with Apex and promotes adoption is OK. For
example Hadoop provides links to HDP and CDH sandboxes:
https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/QuickStart. Additionally, bigtop sandbox
does not seem to support Virt
Agreed, didn't realize this was in the documentation page.

I disagree. Apex documentation is not the place to promote vendor
offerings.
I suggested to refer to the download page, which already contains the
DataTorrent link.

Hi Dean,
There aren't many good options out there for users to get an environment up
with apex apps running easily or quickly. We all know how difficult it
would be for someone new to get an application up and running even if they
had a hadoop sandbox with apex. Also, for many when they download a

There are also some improvements that can be done to the instructions on
the docker hub (separate activity).
I would also suggest to list the Apex binary build on the downloads page
for users that have an existing cluster:

All,
In the Sandbox section of the Apache Apex Development Environment Setup
documentation (
https://apex.apache.org/docs/apex/apex_development_setup/#sandbox),
instructions are provided for a vendor-specific Sandbox.
I would like to propose that these instructions be changed to reference the
