+1 (non-binding) for incubation of Phoenix. This is already a very useful 
project for HBase users, and it will be good to see it driven by a larger 
community.

It may be also be good to get a legal opinion about the name, and/or check for 
an alternative. There may be some existing software products with this name 
(e.g. http://www.opwglobal.com/Product.aspx?pid=342).

Subject: [PROPOSAL] Phoenix for Incubation

Hi All,

We're pleased to share a draft ASF incubation proposal for Phoenix, a SQL layer 
over HBase, initially developed at Salesforce.com and subsequently open sourced 
on github (https://github.com/forcedotcom/phoenix). Instead of using Map-reduce 
to processes queries, it compiles SQL directly into native HBase calls. The 
complete proposal can be found here:
https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/PhoenixProposal, and is also pasted below.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

James

== Abstract ==
Phoenix is an open source SQL query engine for Apache HBase, a NoSQL data 
store.  It is accessed as a JDBC driver and enables querying and managing HBase 
tables using SQL.

== Proposal ==
Phoenix is an open source SQL skin over HBase delivered as a client-embedded 
JDBC driver targeting low latency queries over HBase data. Phoenix takes your 
SQL query, compiles it into a series of HBase scans, and orchestrates the 
running of those scans to produce regular JDBC result sets. The table metadata 
is stored in an HBase table and versioned, such that snapshot queries over 
prior versions will automatically use the correct schema. Direct use of the 
HBase API, along with coprocessors and custom filters, results in performance 
on the order of milliseconds for small queries, or seconds for tens of millions 
of rows. Phoenix interfaces with both Pig and Map-reduce for the input and 
output of data.

== Background ==
Phoenix initially started as an internal project at Salesforce.com to 
efficiently analyze big data stored in HBase. It was open sourced on Github 
about a year ago in Jan 2013. Over time Phoenix, together with HBase as the 
storage tier, has begun to evolve into a general SQL database with support for 
metadata management, secondary indexes, joins, query optimization, and 
multi-tenancy. This is expected to continue as Phoenix implements a cost-based 
query optimizer and potentially transaction support, and surfaces new HBase 
security features such as encryption and cell-level security. Phoenix's 
developer community has also grown to include additional companies such as 
Intel, who have contributed join support to Phoenix, as well as Hortonworks, 
who are in the process of porting Phoenix to the 0.96 release of HBase.

== Rationale ==
As usage and the number of contributors to Phoenix has grown, we have sought 
for a long-term home for the project, and we believe the Apache foundation 
would be a great fit. Joining Apache would ensure that tried and true processes 
and procedures are in place for the growing number of organizations interested 
in contributing to Phoenix. Phoenix is also a good fit for the Apache 
foundation: Phoenix already interoperates with several existing Apache projects 
(HBase, Hadoop, Pig). The Phoenix team is familiar with the Apache process and 
and believes in the Apache mission - the team already includes multiple Apache 
committers.

== Initial Goals ==
The initial goals will be to move the existing codebase to Apache and integrate 
with the Apache development process. Once this is accomplished, we plan for 
incremental development and releases that follow the Apache guidelines.

== Current Status ==
Phoenix has undergone two major and three minor releases (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.0, 
and 2.1) as well as many patch releases. Phoenix is being used in production by 
Salesforce.com as well as at other organizations. The Phoenix codebase is 
currently hosted at github.com, which will form the basis of the Apache git 
repository.

=== Meritocracy ===
The Phoenix project already operates on meritocratic principles.
Phoenix has several developers from various organizations outside of 
Salesforce.com who have contributed major new features. While this process has 
remained mostly informal, as we do not have an official committer list, an 
implicit organization exists in which individuals who contribute major 
components act as maintainers for those modules.
If accepted, the Phoenix project would include several of these participants as 
initial committers. We will work to identify all committers and PPMC members 
for the project and to operate under the ASF meritocratic principles.

=== Community ===
Acceptance into the Apache foundation would bolster the already strong user and 
developer community around Phoenix. That community includes many contributors 
from various other companies, and an active mailing list c

Yep you must have gotten lost. The board _is_ open alternatives and
trying some experiments. Roy said this here on general@, several
others have said that on board@. Our working assumption should be that
they'll ok us trying some things. Also, given the diverse and
disparate group that make up the Incubator PMC I hope everyone can try
to have an open mind about experiments and not try to block people
trying things just because its not what they personally think will
work or is the best experiment.

With a two tier model - with PPMC membership granting voting rights on
podling releases, then a podling would start with just mentors on its

PPMC pretty quickly, and thus you'd be able to vote on your releases.


I am concerned that it would be dis-empowering to the incoming community

Re: Cultivating Outstanding IP Stewards

2013-11-18 Thread Joseph Schaefer
I don’t see how the situation is any worse
than it is now, where no one on the project
currently has a binding vote on a release.
Going from that to “a few” may seem unfair,
but we have to start somewhere and we need
to keep in mind that this is partly a training
exercise, where we need to see people actually
demonstrate good judgement on policy matters.

Unfortunately this doesn’t solve the bootstrapping
issue directly with the first release, unless we
use it as a remedy for letting release votes stall.

This is getting too complicated.  The problem of our own dist area requiring
complicated configuration is separate from the problem of graduating TLPs
leaving a mess behind in the Incubator, and also separate from the problem of
TLPs having too many artifacts on the mirrors.  Infra has asked us to solve a
specific problem, and I want to be responsive to Infra's request.

Since no one has volunteered, I'm just going to take care of the dist dir
situation myself.  There won't be any additional space requirements imposed on
the mirrors, though I don't know whether there might be a pointless one-time
sync cost caused by file datestamp changes.

After that, we can nudge the graduated TLPs to come back and pick up after
themselves.

Thanks for taking care of it Marvin. I was planning to volunteer but do not 
have good internet until Friday. If anything is left over by Friday (11/22), I

A bit late to this, but another enthusiastic +1 for Phoenix.

Phoenix is an excellent addition to HBase. Data types, loose coupling between 
your data schemas and applications making schema evolution easier, speedier 
scans and a good set of aggregation functions - a lot of convenience for a 
certain class of applications that need to use HBase. And despite the excellent 
features it already offers, there is much, much more work to be done here and I 
think making this a part of the Apache umbrella will incentivize more people to 
contribute.

Thanks for the offer Suresh.  This is the kind of thing that is best done
by a single person getting in a groove, though, so I've just powered through
and finished.  The following directories have been copied into
dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator:

ambari
amber
chukwa
deltaspike
droids
hcatalog
imperius
isis
jspwiki
kafka
kato
net
mesos
npanday
odftoolkit
olio
photark
s4
stonehenge
tashi

The only wrinkle was that Kafka had an svn checkout of their docs in there for
the 0.7.0 release.  I committed the docs but stripped the .svn dirs.

If I've done everything right, it should be possible for Infra to flip the
switch and use new-style dist.apache.org synchronization at the incubator/
level.

It would be nice if we continue on with the cleanup.  Should we remove the
directories for podlings which have retired?

And then there's the matter of dealing with TLPs who still need to link to
incubating releases.  Jake and I were talking on IRC about giving them a
deadline to move needed releases to their own dist area, after which we svn
remove their dirs.  Two weeks notice seems enough to me, WDYT?
