Hi all, HBase submits a report to the ASF board once a quarter, to inform the board about project health. I'm sending the report to the user@ and dev@ mailing lists because you are the project, and for transparency. If you have any questions about the report or the running of the project, you can post them to any PMC member or committer, or send an email to priv...@hbase.apache.org, which every PMC member subscribes to.
## Description: Apache HBase is an open-source, distributed, versioned, non-relational database. Apache HBase gives you low latency random access to billions of rows with millions of columns atop non-specialized hardware. hbase-thirdparty is a set of internal artifacts used by the project to mitigate the impact of our dependency choices on the wider ecosystem. hbase-connectors is a collection of integration points with other projects. The initial release includes artifacts for use with Apache Kafka and Apache Spark. hbase-filesystem contains HBase project-specific implementations of the Apache Hadoop FileSystem API. It is currently experimental and internal to the project. hbase-operator-tools is a collection of tools for HBase operators. Now it is mainly for hosting HBCK2. hbase-native-client is a client library in C/C++, in its early days. hbase-kustomize is for deploying HBase on kubernetes, still under development. ## Project Status: Current project status: Ongoing Issues for the board: ## Membership Data: Apache HBase was founded 2010-04-21 (15 years ago) There are currently 107 committers and 61 PMC members in this project.
