Pulsar is a highly scalable, low latency messaging platform running on commodity hardware. It provides simple pub-sub semantics over topics, guaranteed at-least-once delivery of messages, automatic cursor management for subscribers, and cross-datacenter replication.
Pulsar has been incubating since 2017-06-01. Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation: 1. Grow the community with new Committers/PPMC members. 2. Set up a test cluster to be able to run system tests 3. Improve release process by having more committers taking part in releases Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of? None How has the community developed since the last report? The community added 4 contributors. There is a healthy discuss on issues related to development, tools and processes among the community members. There has been a good number of questions asked by users on the Slack channel where there are around 33 weekly active users. How has the project developed since the last report? 18 authors have pushed 150 commits to master in the last 3 months. The project has made the its second release in the Apache Incubator on October 13th. The next release (1.21-incubating) is being voted right now in the dev mailing list. Several design documents with improvement proposals have been submitted to the wiki and discussed in the mailing list. How would you assess the podling's maturity?
