Hi Arun, This proposal looks great. I would like to be an active contributor on this project. I bring with me the experience of Apache Ambari and developing the Ambari Metrics System.

Eagle provides intuitive user interface >>>>> to >>>>> administer Eagle and an alert dashboard to respond to real time alerts. >>>>> >>>>> Data Collection and Storage: >>>>> Eagle provides programming API for extending Eagle to integrate any data >>>>> source into Eagle policy evaluation framework. For example, Eagle hdfs >>>>> audit monitoring collects data from Kafka which is populated from namenode >>>>> log4j appender or from logstash agent. Eagle hive monitoring collects hive >>>>> query logs from running job through YARN API, which is designed to be >>>>> scalable and fault-tolerant. Eagle uses HBase as storage for storing >>>>> metadata and metrics data, and also supports relational database through >>>>> configuration change. >>>>> >>>>> Data Processing and Policy Engine: >>>>> Processing Engine: Eagle provides stream processing API which is an >>>>> abstraction of Apache Storm. It can also be extended to other streaming >>>>> engines. This abstraction allows developers to assemble data >>>>> transformation, filtering, external data join etc. without physically >>>>> bound >>>>> to a specific streaming platform. Eagle streaming API allows developers to >>>>> easily integrate business logic with Eagle policy engine and internally >>>>> Eagle framework compiles business logic execution DAG into program >>>>> primitives of underlying stream infrastructure e.g. Apache Storm. For >>>>> example, Eagle HDFS monitoring transforms audit log from Namenode to >>>>> object >>>>> and joins sensitivity metadata, security zone metadata which are generated >>>>> from external programs or configured by user. Eagle hive monitoring >>>>> filters >>>>> running jobs to get hive query string and parses query string into object >>>>> and then joins sensitivity metadata. >>>>> Alerting Framework: Eagle Alert Framework includes stream metadata API, >>>>> scalable policy engine framework, extensible policy engine framework. >>>>> Stream metadata API allows developers to declare event schema including >>>>> what attributes constitute an event, what is the type for each attribute, >>>>> and how to dynamically resolve attribute value in runtime when user >>>>> configures policy. Scalable policy engine framework allows policies to be >>>>> executed on different physical nodes in parallel. It is also used to >>>>> define >>>>> your own policy partitioner class. Policy engine framework together with >>>>> streaming partitioning capability provided by all streaming platforms will >>>>> make sure policies and events can be evaluated in a fully distributed way. >>>>> Extensible policy engine framework allows developer to plugin a new policy >>>>> engine with a few lines of codes. WSO2 Siddhi CEP engine is the policy >>>>> engine which Eagle supports as first-class citizen. >>>>> Machine Learning module: Eagle provides capabilities to define user >>>>> activity patterns or user profiles for Hadoop users based on the user >>>>> behaviour in the platform. These user profiles are modeled using Machine >>>>> Learning algorithms and used for detection of anomalous users activities. >>>>> Eagle uses Eigen Value Decomposition, and Density Estimation algorithms >>>>> for >>>>> generating user profile models. The model reads data from HDFS audit logs, >>>>> preprocesses and aggregates data, and generates models using Spark >>>>> programming APIs. Once models are generated, Eagle uses stream processing >>>>> engine for near real-time anomaly detection to determine if any user’s >>>>> activities are suspicious or not. >>>>> >>>>> Eagle Services: >>>>> Query Service: Eagle provides SQL-like service API to support >>>>> comprehensive computation for huge set of data on the fly, for e.g. >>>>> comprehensive filtering, aggregation, histogram, sorting, top, >>>>> arithmetical >>>>> expression, pagination etc. HBase is the data storage which Eagle supports >>>>> as first-class citizen, relational database is supported as well. For >>>>> HBase >>>>> storage, Eagle query framework compiles user provided SQL-like query into >>>>> HBase native filter objects and execute it through HBase coprocessor on >>>>> the >>>>> fly. >>>>> Policy Manager: Eagle policy manager provides UI and Restful API for user >>>>> to define policy with just a few clicks. It includes site management UI, >>>>> policy editor, sensitivity metadata import, HDFS or Hive sensitive >>>>> resource >>>>> browsing, alert dashboards etc. >>>>> Background >>>>> Data is one of the most important assets for today’s businesses, which >>>>> makes data security one of the top priorities of today’s enterprises. >>>>> Hadoop is widely used across different verticals as a big data repository >>>>> to store this data in most modern enterprises. >>>>> At eBay we use hadoop platform extensively for our data processing needs. >>>>> Our data in Hadoop is becoming bigger and bigger as our user base is >>>>> seeing >>>>> an exponential growth.
