[VOTE] Accept Ignite into the Apache Incubator
I would like to call a vote for accepting "Apache Ignite" for Apache Incubator.
The full proposal is available below. We ask the IPMC to sponsor it, with cos
as Champion, and stack, rvs, cos, hsaputra and brane volunteering to be Mentors.
Please cast your vote:
[ ] +1, bring Iginite into Incubator
[ ] +0, I don't care either way,
[ ] -1, do not bring Iginite into Incubator, because...
This vote will be open for 72 hours and only votes from the Incubator
PMC are binding.

Proposal text from the wiki:
## page was renamed from SilkProposal
= Ignite Apache Incubator Proposal =
== Abstract ==
Apache Ignite will be a unified In-Memory Data Fabric providing
high-performance, distributed in-memory data management software layer between
various data sources and user applications.
== Proposal ==
Apache Ignite is written mostly in Java and Scala with small amount of C++ code
and will initially combine the following technologies under one unified
umbrella:
* In-Memory Data Grid
* In-Memory Compute Grid
* In-Memory Streaming Processing
This unified in-memory fabric will provide high-performance, distributed
in-memory software layer that sits in between various data sources and user
applica tions. Data sources can include SQL RDBMS, NoSQL, or HDFS. Applications
APIs will be available for Java (and Java-based scripting languages), Scala,
C++ and .NET (C#).
GridGain Systems, Inc. submits this proposal to donate its Apache 2.0-licensed
open source project generally known as “GridGain In-Memory Computing Platform”,
its source code, documentation, and websites to the Apache Software Foundation
(“ASF”) with the goal of extending the vibrant open source community around
this technology ultimately governed by “Apache Way”. Proposed Naming
We have been advised by the ASF mentors that the name “Ignite” may not be ideal
because the name may be too generic and may not pass ASF legal check. Here are
the alternatives that we have come up with and any of those will be acceptable
for the project pending the ASF legal green light:
* Apache Silk (preferable name)
* Apache Sylk
* Apache Memstor
* Apache Ignite
== Background & Rationale ==
In-Memory Data Fabric is a natural and evolutionary consolidation of various
“in-memory technologies” from the last decade. From simple local caching
(JSR-107), to distributed caching, to data grids and databases, to streaming
and plug-n-play acceleration - the in-memory space has grown quite
dramatically.
With rapid advances in NVRAM and significant price reduction of traditional
DRAM on one hand, and growing sophistication and demand for faster data
processing on another - many users of these silo-ed technologies and products
started to look for a “strategic approach” to in-memory - an in-memory data
fabric - that would provide suitable APIs for different types of payloads: from
data caching, to data grids, to in-memory SQL data stores, to HPC, to streaming
processing.
With expensive and proprietary in-memory computing products from companies like
Oracle, SAP, Microsoft, and IBM - the developers worldwide need an unhindered
access to advanced open source in-memory software technology, the technology
they can trust to develop with and deploy for critical applications. Current
Status
Apache Ignite will be based on the technology that is currently developed by
GridGain Systems and available under Apache 2.0 license
(http://www.gridgain.org). The software has been in development since 2007 and
in production since 2009. It is currently used by over 500 production
deployments with over 1,000,000 downloads to date, and with over 20,000,000
GridGain nodes started in the last 5 years.
== Comparative analysis to relevant projects ==
=== Ignite vs. Spark ===
Apache Spark is a data-analytic and ML centric system that ingest data from
HDFS or another distributed file system and performs in-memory processing of
this data. Ignite is an In-Memory Data Fabric that is data source agnostic and
provides both Hadoop-like computation engine (MapReduce) as well as many other
computing paradigms like MPP, MPI, Streaming processing. Ignite also includes
first-class level support for cluster management and operations, cluster-aware
messaging and zero-deployment technologies. Ignite also provides support for
full ACID transactions spanning memory and optional data sources.
Ignite is a broader in-memory system that is less focused on Hadoop. Apache
Spark is more inclined towards analytics and ML, and focused on MR-specific
payloads.
=== Ignite vs. Storm, Samza ===
Apache Storm is streaming processing framework. Apache Samza is a distributed
stream processing engine. Ignite is a multi-purpose In-Memory Data Fabric that
also includes streaming processing capabilities (and we can argue better
capabilities when it comes to streaming and CEP).
Generally, Apache Storm and Apache Samza provide a very different
implementation for one of the functional areas of Ignite.
=== Ignite vs. Hadoop ===
Apache Hadoop is a batch oriented data warehouse system. Ignite is a real-time,
transactional In-Memory Data Fabric focused on real-time processing of
operational data. In most cases, Hadoop acts as one of the “slower” datasources
on top of which Ignite is typically deployed.
== Initial Goals ==
The number one goal during ASF incubation will coalesce around building a true
active and vibrant community governed by the “Apache Way”. The initial
development goals for Ignite primarily revolve around migrating the existing
code base, documentation, and refactoring of the existing internal build, test
& release processes. We believe these initial goals are sufficiently difficult
to be considered early milestones.
Some of the specific initial goals include:
* Migrate the existing Ignite code base to the ASF.
* Refactor development, testing, build and release processes to work in ASF.
* Attract developer and user interest in the new Apache Ignite project.
* Road map the integration efforts with “sister” projects in ASF eco-system like Storm and Spark.
* Incorporate externally developed features into the core Apache Ignite project.
== Known Risks ==
This proposal is not without its risks, some of which are outlined below.
The current list of committers are primarily from GridGain Systems. One of the
key purposes of proposing Ignite for incubation is to attract new committers
and spur the adoption of Ignite. The ASF has a well-deserved reputation of
fostering and building open source communities, which makes it the ideal
location to attempt this community bootstrap.
Most of the initial committers are supported by their employers to work on
Ignite, and may be assigned to work on other priorities. However, the employers
of these salaried individuals - GridGain Systems or current customers and users
- have a vested interest in seeing Ignite thrive as a long-term, growing
project.
GridGain Systems understands that their employees are acting as individuals
when contributing to Apache projects. As a major initial contributor GridGain
Systems is prepared to bring additional staff on board to assist with Ignite
development to ensure its active growth.
One of the key motivators in creating the Ignite project as part of the
Incubator is to leverage the vendor-neutral nature of the ASF. The ASF has a
strong and recognized brand as being a leader in open source, and by hosting
Ignite at the ASF, we hope to attract developers to build a viable community
for the project.
== Meritocracy ==
Apache Ignite plans to adopt the policy that encourages an environment that
supports a meritocracy. We intend to actively ask the community for help,
listing/specifying the work that needs to be done, and keeping track of and
encouraging members of the community who make any contributions. Community &
Core Developers
GridGain project has been actively building community of users in the last
couple of years with an active StackOverflow group, support groups, and Meetups
(http://www.meetup.com/Bay-Area-In-Memory-Computing). This group includes
active members of Apache community as well. We strongly believe that this
community will grow and develop substantially as part of Apache family and
that’s our commitment.
== Existing Documentation ==
Current documentation for GridGain project can be found here:
http://www.gridgain.org/documentation/ We intend to migrate it into ASF
podling.
