[VOTE] Pulsar into the Apache Incubator

Hi All,

As the champion for Pulsar, I would like to start a VOTE to bring the
project in as Apache incubator podling.

The ASF voting rules are described:

	https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html

A vote for accepting a new Apache Incubator podling is a majority vote for which 
only Incubator PMC member votes are binding.

This vote will run for at least 72 hours. Please VOTE as follows
[] +1 Accept Pulsar into the Apache Incubator
[] +0 Abstain.
[] -1 Do not accept Pulsar into the Apache Incubator because ...

The proposal is listed below, but you can also access it on the wiki:

	https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/PulsarProposal

-Bryan


= Pulsar Proposal =

== Abstract ==

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.

== Proposal ==

Pub-sub messaging is a very common design pattern that is increasingly found
in distributed systems powering Internet applications. These applications
provide real-time services, and need publish-latencies of 5ms on average and
no more than 15ms at the 99th percentile. At Internet scale, these
applications require a messaging system with ordering, strong durability, and
delivery guarantees. In order to handle the “five 9’s” durability requirements
of a production environment, the messages have to be committed on multiple
disks or nodes.

Pulsar has been developed at Yahoo to address these specific requirements by
providing a hosted service supporting millions of topics for multiple tenants.
The current incarnation of Pulsar has been open-sourced under Apache license
in September 2016 and it is the direct evolution of systems that were
developed at Yahoo since 2011.

We believe there is currently no other system that provides a multi-tenant
hosted messaging platform capable of supporting a huge number of topics while
maintaining strict guarantees for durability, ordering and low latency.
Current solutions would require to run multiple individual clusters with
additional operational work and capacity overhead.

Since the open sourcing of Pulsar, the development has been done exclusively
on the public Github repository and two major releases were shipped (1.15 and
1.16), along with multiple minor ones. Several other companies have expressed
interest in the project and its future direction.

== Rationale ==

Pulsar is a platform that is built on top of several other Apache projects. In
particular, Apache BookKeeper is used to store the data and Apache ZooKeeper
is used for coordination and metadata storage. Pulsar is also interoperable
out of the box with Apache Storm, to provide an easy to use stream processing
solution.

We want to establish a community outside the scope of initial core developers
at Yahoo and we believe that the Apache Foundation is a great fit and long-
term home for Pulsar, as it provides an established process for community-
driven development and decision making by consensus. This is exactly the model
we want to adopt for future Pulsar development.

== Initial Goals ==

The initial goals will be to move the existing codebase to Apache and
integrate with the Apache development process. Furthermore, we plan for
incremental development, and releases along with the Apache guidelines.

== Current Status ==

Pulsar has been in service at large scale for more than 2 years at Yahoo. In
this time around 60 different applications were integrated with Pulsar. Other
companies are evaluating it as well and have been contributing code to the
project.

=== Meritocracy ===

We value meritocracy and we understand that it is the basis to form an open
community that encourages multiple companies and individuals to contribute and
get invested in the project future. We will encourage and monitor
participation and make sure to extend privileges and responsibilities to all
contributors.

=== Community ===

We have validated, through the interest demonstrated by Pulsar users at Yahoo,
that a reliable hosted pub-sub messaging platform represent a very important
building block for web-scale distributed applications. We believe that many
companies can benefit by applying the same model and that bringing Pulsar to
Apache will get the community to grow stronger.

=== Core Developers ===

Pulsar has been initially developed at Yahoo and received significant
contributions from Yahoo Japan. After having open-sourced the project there
have been contribution from developers from several external companies.

=== Alignment ===

Pulsar builds upon other Apache projects such as ZooKeeper and BookKeeper,
along with a number of other Apache libraries. We have already integrated with
Storm and we envision to integrate with multiple other systems in the
streaming and big data space.

== Known Risks ==

=== Orphaned Products ===

Yahoo has been doing most of the development and, given that many internal
platforms depends on Pulsar, it is heavily invested in the long term success
of the the project. Yahoo has a long history participating in open-source
projects, and has been also a long time contributor to the Apache community.

=== Inexperience with Open Source ===

Many Pulsar contributors are already familiar with the open source process and
several of them are committers on other Apache projects. We will be actively
working with experienced Apache community members to improve our project.

=== Homogenous Developers ===

The initial committers are employed by large companies including Yahoo, Yahoo!
Japan, Salesforce and MercadoLibre. We hope to grow the community and to
include additional committers based on their contributions to the project.

=== Reliance on Salaried Developers ===

It is expected that Pulsar development will occur on both salaried time and on
volunteer time, after hours. The majority of initial committers are paid by
their employer to contribute to this project. However, they are all passionate
about the project, and we are confident that the project will continue even if
no salaried developers contribute to the project.

=== Relationships with Other Apache Products ===

As mentioned in the Rationale section, Pulsar is closely dependent and
integrated with BookKeeper and ZooKeeper and Storm. There are ongoing to
integrate with other projects such Apache Spark. We look forward to
collaborating with those communities, as well as other Apache communities.

=== An Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand ===

We are applying to the Incubator process because we think it is the next
logical step for the Pulsar project after open-sourcing the code in 2016. This
proposal is not for the purpose of generating publicity. Rather, we want to
make sure to create a very inclusive and meritocratic community, outside the
umbrella of a single company. Yahoo has a long standing history of
contributing to Apache projects and the Pulsar developers and contributors
understand the implication of making it an Apache project.

== Documentation ==
 * Pulsar code base: https://github.com/yahoo/pulsar
 * Pulsar documentation: https://github.com/yahoo/pulsar/blob
 	/master/docs/Documentation.md

== Initial Source ==

The Pulsar codebase is currently hosted on Github:
https://github.com/yahoo/pulsar. This is the exact codebase that we would
migrate to the Apache Software Foundation.

== Source and Intellectual Property Submission Plan ==

The Pulsar source code in Github is currently licensed under Apache License
v2.0 and the copyright is assigned to Yahoo. All the contributions from
external parties have been received under Apache style CLA. If Pulsar fulfills
and passes the conditions for being an Incubator project in the ASF, Yahoo
will transition the source code ownership to the Apache Software Foundation
via the Software Grant Agreement.

> == Abstract ==
>
> 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.
>
> == Proposal ==
>
> Pub-sub messaging is a very common design pattern that is increasingly found
> in distributed systems powering Internet applications. These applications
> provide real-time services, and need publish-latencies of 5ms on average and
> no more than 15ms at the 99th percentile. At Internet scale, these
> applications require a messaging system with ordering, strong durability, and
> delivery guarantees. In order to handle the “five 9’s” durability requirements
> of a production environment, the messages have to be committed on multiple
> disks or nodes.
>
> Pulsar has been developed at Yahoo to address these specific requirements by
> providing a hosted service supporting millions of topics for multiple tenants.
> The current incarnation of Pulsar has been open-sourced under Apache license
> in September 2016 and it is the direct evolution of systems that were
> developed at Yahoo since 2011.
>
> We believe there is currently no other system that provides a multi-tenant
> hosted messaging platform capable of supporting a huge number of topics while
> maintaining strict guarantees for durability, ordering and low latency.
> Current solutions would require to run multiple individual clusters with
> additional operational work and capacity overhead.
>
> Since the open sourcing of Pulsar, the development has been done exclusively
> on the public Github repository and two major releases were shipped (1.15 and
> 1.16), along with multiple minor ones. Several other companies have expressed
> interest in the project and its future direction.
>
> == Rationale ==
>
> Pulsar is a platform that is built on top of several other Apache projects. In
> particular, Apache BookKeeper is used to store the data and Apache ZooKeeper
> is used for coordination and metadata storage. Pulsar is also interoperable
> out of the box with Apache Storm, to provide an easy to use stream processing
> solution.
>
> We want to establish a community outside the scope of initial core developers
> at Yahoo and we believe that the Apache Foundation is a great fit and long-
> term home for Pulsar, as it provides an established process for community-
> driven development and decision making by consensus. This is exactly the model
> we want to adopt for future Pulsar development.
>
> == Initial Goals ==
>
> The initial goals will be to move the existing codebase to Apache and
> integrate with the Apache development process. Furthermore, we plan for
> incremental development, and releases along with the Apache guidelines.
>
> == Current Status ==
>
> Pulsar has been in service at large scale for more than 2 years at Yahoo. In
> this time around 60 different applications were integrated with Pulsar. Other
> companies are evaluating it as well and have been contributing code to the
> project.
>
> === Meritocracy ===
>
> We value meritocracy and we understand that it is the basis to form an open
> community that encourages multiple companies and individuals to contribute and
> get invested in the project future. We will encourage and monitor
> participation and make sure to extend privileges and responsibilities to all
> contributors.
>
> === Community ===
>
> We have validated, through the interest demonstrated by Pulsar users at Yahoo,
> that a reliable hosted pub-sub messaging platform represent a very important
> building block for web-scale distributed applications. We believe that many
> companies can benefit by applying the same model and that bringing Pulsar to
> Apache will get the community to grow stronger.
>
> === Core Developers ===
>
> Pulsar has been initially developed at Yahoo and received significant
> contributions from Yahoo Japan. After having open-sourced the project there
> have been contribution from developers from several external companies.
>
> === Alignment ===
>
> Pulsar builds upon other Apache projects such as ZooKeeper and BookKeeper,
> along with a number of other Apache libraries. We have already integrated with
> Storm and we envision to integrate with multiple other systems in the
> streaming and big data space.
>
> == Known Risks ==
>
> === Orphaned Products ===
>
> Yahoo has been doing most of the development and, given that many internal
> platforms depends on Pulsar, it is heavily invested in the long term success
> of the the project. Yahoo has a long history participating in open-source
> projects, and has been also a long time contributor to the Apache community.
>
> === Inexperience with Open Source ===
>
> Many Pulsar contributors are already familiar with the open source process and
> several of them are committers on other Apache projects. We will be actively
> working with experienced Apache community members to improve our project.
>
> === Homogenous Developers ===
>
> The initial committers are employed by large companies including Yahoo, Yahoo!
> Japan, Salesforce and MercadoLibre. We hope to grow the community and to
> include additional committers based on their contributions to the project.
>
> === Reliance on Salaried Developers ===
>
> It is expected that Pulsar development will occur on both salaried time and on
> volunteer time, after hours. The majority of initial committers are paid by
> their employer to contribute to this project. However, they are all passionate
> about the project, and we are confident that the project will continue even if
> no salaried developers contribute to the project.
>
> === Relationships with Other Apache Products ===
>
> As mentioned in the Rationale section, Pulsar is closely dependent and
> integrated with BookKeeper and ZooKeeper and Storm. There are ongoing to
> integrate with other projects such Apache Spark. We look forward to
> collaborating with those communities, as well as other Apache communities.
>
> === An Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand ===
>
> We are applying to the Incubator process because we think it is the next
> logical step for the Pulsar project after open-sourcing the code in 2016. This
> proposal is not for the purpose of generating publicity. Rather, we want to
> make sure to create a very inclusive and meritocratic community, outside the
> umbrella of a single company. Yahoo has a long standing history of
> contributing to Apache projects and the Pulsar developers and contributors
> understand the implication of making it an Apache project.
