[ANNOUNCE] Introducing "Debo" – A Unified Management Tool for the Hadoop Ecosystem (Including Hive Support)

[Surafel Temesgen <de...@gmail.com>]

Dear Hive Developers,

My name is *Surafel Temesgen*, and I’m excited to share a project I’ve been
developing called *Debo*—a lightweight, unified infrastructure management
tool that supports monitoring and basic control over Hadoop ecosystem
components, including *Apache Hive*.
------------------------------
💡 What is Debo?

*Debo* is a desktop-based open-source application (written in C) designed
to simplify infrastructure management in complex Hadoop-based environments.
It provides an interface for visualizing status, executing basic
operations, and managing configurations across a wide set of services
including:

   -

   *HDFS, YARN, HBase, Kafka*
   -

   *Hive* (including Hive Metastore)
   -

   *Flink, Spark, Tez, Zookeeper*
   -

   And others: Atlas, Ranger, Pig, Phoenix, Presto, Hue, Oozie, etc.

The intention is to provide a *single, unified control plane* for
cluster-wide visibility and interaction.
------------------------------
🧪 Incubation & Community Input Needed

Debo has been proposed to the Apache Incubator and is currently seeking *3
PMC sponsors* to proceed. You can read and join the ongoing thread here:
🔗 https://lists.apache.org/thread/bp0rqvf4xvmdb3n1m2fzhwym95841s5v

Although not yet incubated, I plan to release a *beta version in the coming
weeks*. This will include enhanced Hive support and an updated onboarding
experience.
------------------------------
🙏 Your Feedback is Welcome

If you work with Hive, I’d greatly appreciate your feedback on:

   -

   Integration opportunities with Hive and Hive Metastore
   -

   Suggestions for Hive-specific control or monitoring features
   -

   Improvements to support administrative or development workflows

🔧 What’s Coming

   -

   Updated documentation and README.md
   -

   Step-by-step video tutorials
   -

   Beta release with Hive and Metastore functionality

------------------------------

Thanks so much for your time and consideration. I’d be thrilled to hear
your ideas, feedback, or questions about integrating with Hive.

Warm regards,
*Surafel Temesgen*

Yes, I’m actively working toward that goal. The *Debo* project is intended
to serve a similar purpose as *Ambari* or *Cloudera Manager*, and the
planned beta release will include many comparable features—such as service
management, monitoring, and control for components like HDFS, YARN, HBase,
Spark, and others.

  Appreciate your interest, and I’ll be happy to share more as the project
progresses!


regards

Surafel

Hi Surafel,

Thanks for sharing!

Does it serve a similar purpose as Ambari or Cloudera Manager?

Denys
