Hi Alex, Thanks for your reply! We’re hoping to find and start using something on quite a short deadline so we’ll probably be looking for something that’s more established in the short-term, but I’d certainly be interested to check out what you’re working on when it’s public.
As for the models – the honest answer is I’m not sure yet, but it’s for research purposes so we want it to be as flexible as possible (i.e. we want to be able to plug in our own code and algorithms and not be tied to pre-existing templates).

But we've seen it as an opportunity to continue an internal project which builds on top of Metron. Our goal is to make our project open source as a potential successor to Metron. We're maybe a month or two away from making it public, but we'd love some eyes on it before we take that step if you're interested in taking a look. Since it builds on Metron, a lot of the core architecture remains familiar. Java, Kafka, Storm, etc.... Hopefully, that presents a familiar ecosystem for folks who are currently using Metron. For improvements, we focused on: · Ensuring that simple configuration mistakes don't bring down the whole pipeline · A git-based approval workflow for rules updates (approvals and an audit trail are important for us) · An improved, modern-looking UI in Angular · Easier installation steps Let me know if you're interested in discussing more -- I'd be interested to hear whether there are any particulars about the models you're running that we should take into consideration.

I’d be very grateful if anyone could help to clarify the following: * Is there likely to be any continued development of Metron outside of Apache? * Are there any alternatives to Metron that people in this community would recommend? In particular, we’re looking for something open source that we can deploy ourselves, and with the functionality to straightforwardly integrate our own machine learning models for anomaly detection/similar.
