>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> == Rationale ==
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> With Dataflow, Google intended to develop a framework which allowed
>>>>>>> developers to be maximally productive in defining the processing, and
>>>>>>> then
>>>>>>> be able to execute the program at various levels of
>>>>>>> latency/cost/completeness without re-architecting or re-writing it.
>>>>>>> This
>>>>>>> goal was informed by Google’s past experience  developing several
>>>>>>> models,
>>>>>>> frameworks, and tools useful for large-scale and distributed data
>>>>>>> processing. While Google has previously published papers describing
>>>>>>> some
>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>> its technologies, Google decided to take a different approach with
>>>>>>> Dataflow. Google open-sourced the SDK and model alongside
>>>>>>> commercialization
>>>>>>> of the idea and ahead of publishing papers on the topic. As a
>>>>>>> result, a
>>>>>>> number of open source runtimes exist for Dataflow, such as the Apache
>>>>>>> Flink
>>>>>>> and Apache Spark runners.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> We believe that submitting Dataflow as an Apache project will provide
>>>>>>> an
>>>>>>> immediate, worthwhile, and substantial contribution to the open
>>>>>>> source
>>>>>>> community. As an incubating project, we believe Dataflow will have a
>>>>>>> better
>>>>>>> opportunity to provide a meaningful contribution to OSS and also
>>>>>>> integrate
>>>>>>> with other Apache projects.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> In the long term, we believe Dataflow can be a powerful abstraction
>>>>>>> layer
>>>>>>> for data processing. By providing an abstraction layer for data
>>>>>>> pipelines
>>>>>>> and processing, data workflows can be increasingly portable,
>>>>>>> resilient
>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>> breaking changes in tooling, and compatible across many execution
>>>>>>> engines,
>>>>>>> runtimes, and open source projects.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> == Initial Goals ==
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> We are breaking our initial goals into immediate (< 2 months),
>>>>>>> short-term
>>>>>>> (2-4 months), and intermediate-term (> 4 months).
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Our immediate goals include the following:
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Plan for reconciling the Dataflow Java SDK and various runners into
>>>>>>> one
>>>>>>> project
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Plan for refactoring the existing Java SDK for better extensibility
>>>>>>> by
>>>>>>> SDK and runner writers
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Validating all dependencies are ASL 2.0 or compatible
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Understanding and adapting to the Apache development process
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Our short-term goals include:
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Moving the newly-merged lists, and build utilities to Apache
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Start refactoring codebase and move code to Apache Git repo
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Continue development of new features, functions, and fixes in the
>>>>>>> Dataflow Java SDK, and Dataflow runners
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Cleaning up the Dataflow SDK sources and crafting a roadmap and
>>>>>>> plan
>>>>>>> for
>>>>>>> how to include new major ideas, modules, and runtimes
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Establishment of easy and clear build/test framework for Dataflow
>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>> associated runtimes; creation of testing, rollback, and validation
>>>>>>> policy
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Analysis and design for work needed to make Dataflow a better data
>>>>>>> processing abstraction layer for multiple open source frameworks and
>>>>>>> environments
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Finally, we have a number of intermediate-term goals:
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Roadmapping, planning, and execution of integrations with other OSS
>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>> non-OSS projects/products
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Inclusion of additional SDK for Python, which is under active
>>>>>>> development
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> == Current Status ==
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === Meritocracy ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Dataflow was initially developed based on ideas from many employees
>>>>>>> within
>>>>>>> Google. As an ASL OSS project on GitHub, the Dataflow SDK has
>>>>>>> received
>>>>>>> contributions from data Artisans, Cloudera Labs, and other individual
>>>>>>> developers. As a project under incubation, we are committed to
>>>>>>> expanding
>>>>>>> our effort to build an environment which supports a meritocracy. We
>>>>>>> are
>>>>>>> focused on engaging the community and other related projects for
>>>>>>> support
>>>>>>> and contributions. Moreover, we are committed to ensure contributors
>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>> committers to Dataflow come from a broad mix of organizations
>>>>>>> through a
>>>>>>> merit-based decision process during incubation. We believe strongly
>>>>>>> in
>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>> Dataflow model and are committed to growing an inclusive community of
>>>>>>> Dataflow contributors.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === Community ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> The core of the Dataflow Java SDK has been developed by Google for
>>>>>>> use
>>>>>>> with
>>>>>>> Google Cloud Dataflow. Google has active community engagement in the
>>>>>>> SDK
>>>>>>> GitHub repository (
>>>>>>> https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/DataflowJavaSDK
>>>>>>> ),
>>>>>>> on Stack Overflow (
>>>>>>> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/google-cloud-dataflow) and
>>>>>>> has
>>>>>>> had contributions from a number of organizations and indivuduals.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Everyday, Cloud Dataflow is actively used by a number of
>>>>>>> organizations
>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>> institutions for batch and stream processing of data. We believe
>>>>>>> acceptance
>>>>>>> will allow us to consolidate existing Dataflow-related work, grow the
>>>>>>> Dataflow community, and deepen connections between Dataflow and other
>>>>>>> open
>>>>>>> source projects.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === Core Developers ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> The core developers for Dataflow and the Dataflow runners are:
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Frances Perry
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Tyler Akidau
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Davor Bonaci
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Luke Cwik
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Ben Chambers
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Kenn Knowles
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Dan Halperin
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Daniel Mills
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Mark Shields
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Craig Chambers
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Maximilian Michels
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Tom White
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Josh Wills
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === Alignment ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> The Dataflow SDK can be used to create Dataflow pipelines which can
>>>>>>> be
>>>>>>> executed on Apache Spark or Apache Flink. Dataflow is also related to
>>>>>>> other
>>>>>>> Apache projects, such as Apache Crunch. We plan on expanding
>>>>>>> functionality
>>>>>>> for Dataflow runners, support for additional domain specific
>>>>>>> languages,
>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>> increased portability so Dataflow is a powerful abstraction layer for
>>>>>>> data
>>>>>>> processing.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> == Known Risks ==
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === Orphaned Products ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> The Dataflow SDK is presently used by several organizations, from
>>>>>>> small
>>>>>>> startups to Fortune 100 companies, to construct production pipelines
>>>>>>> which
>>>>>>> are executed in Google Cloud Dataflow. Google has a long-term
>>>>>>> commitment
>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>> advance the Dataflow SDK; moreover, Dataflow is seeing increasing
>>>>>>> interest,
>>>>>>> development, and adoption from organizations outside of Google.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === Inexperience with Open Source ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Google believes strongly in open source and the exchange of
>>>>>>> information
>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>> advance new ideas and work. Examples of this commitment are active
>>>>>>> OSS
>>>>>>> projects such as Chromium (https://www.chromium.org) and Kubernetes
>>>>>>> (
>>>>>>> http://kubernetes.io/). With Dataflow, we have tried to be
>>>>>>> increasingly
>>>>>>> open and forward-looking; we have published a paper in the VLDB
>>>>>>> conference
>>>>>>> describing the Dataflow model (
>>>>>>> http://www.vldb.org/pvldb/vol8/p1792-Akidau.pdf) and were quick to
>>>>>>> release
>>>>>>> the Dataflow SDK as open source software with the launch of Cloud
>>>>>>> Dataflow.
>>>>>>> Our submission to the Apache Software Foundation is a logical
>>>>>>> extension
>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>> our commitment to open source software.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === Homogeneous Developers ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> The majority of committers in this proposal belong to Google due to
>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>> fact that Dataflow has emerged from several internal Google projects.
>>>>>>> This
>>>>>>> proposal also includes committers outside of Google who are actively
>>>>>>> involved with other Apache projects, such as Hadoop, Flink, and
>>>>>>> Spark.
>>>>>>> We
>>>>>>> expect our entry into incubation will allow us to expand the number
>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>> individuals and organizations participating in Dataflow development.
>>>>>>> Additionally, separation of the Dataflow SDK from Google Cloud
>>>>>>> Dataflow
>>>>>>> allows us to focus on the open source SDK and model and do what is
>>>>>>> best
>>>>>>> for
>>>>>>> this project.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === Reliance on Salaried Developers ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> The Dataflow SDK and Dataflow runners have been developed primarily
>>>>>>> by
>>>>>>> salaried developers supporting the Google Cloud Dataflow project.
>>>>>>> While
>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>> Dataflow SDK and Cloud Dataflow have been developed by different
>>>>>>> teams
>>>>>>> (and
>>>>>>> this proposal would reinforce that separation) we expect our initial
>>>>>>> set
>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>> developers will still primarily be salaried. Contribution has not
>>>>>>> been
>>>>>>> exclusively from salaried developers, however. For example, the
>>>>>>> contrib
>>>>>>> directory of the Dataflow SDK (
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/DataflowJavaSDK/tree/master/contrib
>>>>>>> )
>>>>>>> contains items from free-time contributors. Moreover, seperate
>>>>>>> projects,
>>>>>>> such as ScalaFlow (https://github.com/darkjh/scalaflow) have been
>>>>>>> created
>>>>>>> around the Dataflow model and SDK. We expect our reliance on salaried
>>>>>>> developers will decrease over time during incubation.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === Relationship with other Apache products ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Dataflow directly interoperates with or utilizes several existing
>>>>>>> Apache
>>>>>>> projects.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Build
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> ** Apache Maven
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Data I/O, Libraries
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> ** Apache Avro
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> ** Apache Commons
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> * Dataflow runners
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> ** Apache Flink
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> ** Apache Spark
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Dataflow when used in batch mode shares similarities with Apache
>>>>>>> Crunch;
>>>>>>> however, Dataflow is focused on a model, SDK, and abstraction layer
>>>>>>> beyond
>>>>>>> Spark and Hadoop (MapReduce.) One key goal of Dataflow is to provide
>>>>>>> an
>>>>>>> intermediate abstraction layer which can easily be implemented and
>>>>>>> utilized
>>>>>>> across several different processing frameworks.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> === An excessive fascination with the Apache brand ===
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> With this proposal we are not seeking attention or publicity. Rather,
>>>>>>> we
>>>>>>> firmly believe in the Dataflow model, SDK, and the ability to make
>>>>>>> Dataflow
>>>>>>> a powerful yet simple framework for data processing. While the
>>>>>>> Dataflow
>>>>>>> SDK
>>>>>>> and model have been open source, we believe putting code on GitHub
>>>>>>> can
>>>>>>> only
>>>>>>> go so far. We see the Apache community, processes, and mission as
>>>>>>> critical
>>>>>>> for ensuring the Dataflow SDK and model are truly community-driven,
>>>>>>> positively impactful, and innovative open source software. While
>>>>>>> Google
>>>>>>> has
>>>>>>> taken a number of steps to advance its various open source projects,
>>>>>>> we
>>>>>>> believe Dataflow is a great fit for the Apache Software Foundation
>>>>>>> due
>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>> its focus on data processing and its relationships to existing ASF
>>>>>>> projects.
>>>>>>>
