Our May 2020 report to the board
Apache Geode developers, please thank Dave Barnes for putting together
the May 2020 board report that I filed today. Here is the contents of the
report:
## Description:
The mission of Apache Geode is the creation and maintenance of software
related to a data management platform that provides real-time, consistent
access to data-intensive applications throughout widely distributed cloud
architectures.
## Issues:
296 issues opened in JIRA, past quarter (-16% decrease) 226 issues closed in
JIRA, past quarter (-26% decrease)
Given the worldwide impact of the Covid-19 pandemic disruption to our
community's work routines, we feel these figures, though lower than those of
the previous reporting period, reveal an engaged and productive development
community.
## Membership Data:
Apache Geode was founded 2016-11-15 (3 years ago)
There are currently 109 committers and 54 PMC members in this project.
The Committer-to-PMC ratio is roughly 7:4.
Community changes, past quarter:
- Alexander Murmann was added to the PMC on 2020-03-26
- Joris Melchior was added to the PMC on 2020-03-22
- Mark Hanson was added to the PMC on 2020-03-26
- Joris Melchior was added as committer on 2020-03-19
- Mario Kevo was added as committer on 2020-03-23
## Project Activity:
- version 1.12.0 was released on 2020-03-31 This release included improvements
to the management REST API, .NET and C++ native clients, client/server
security, and error recovery.
- version 1.13 release is under way
## Community Health:
The Apache Geode dev and issues mailing lists both experienced upticks in
discussion traffic, up 15% and 44%, respectively, in Q1.
The number of JIRA tickets opened and closed remained robust, though down 16%
and 26%, respectively, from the previous quarter. Points of emphasis included
error recovery improvements, API extensions, and compatibility to accommodate
containers such as Kubernetes and BOSH.
In February, community member Jason Huynh posted an article entitled "Apache
Geode as a remote Gradle Build Cache"
(https://jasonhuynh.blogspot.com/2020/02/apache-geode-as-remote-gradle-build.html).
In March, Jason posted "Publishing Apache Geode Metrics to Wavefront"
(https://medium.com/@huynhja/
publishing-apache-geode-metrics-to-wavefront-6e9a6cf5992b) along with an
accompanying video (https://youtu.be/BDZh-FLkDTg).
Community member Juan Jose Ramos posted an article in March entitled "Geode
Distributed Sequences"
(https://medium.com/@jujoramos/geode-distributed-sequences-12626251d5e3), and
another in April, "The Command Region Pattern"
(https://medium.com/@jujoramos/the-command-region-pattern-14bc49594eca).
In April, community member Barry Oglesby published "Remove Unused PdxTypes
from an Apache Geode Distributed System"
(https://medium.com/@boglesby_2508/remove-unused-pdxtypes-from-an-apache-geode-distributed-system-5a4f0e199e34).
