Google Summer of Code
Hi All,
The Google Summer of Code official start email was sent out today. This can
be a useful opportunity for us as an Apache software. We will probably want
to look at potential Asterix projects to suggest for student proposals.

Re: Google Summer of Code
Posted by Steven Jacobs <sj...@ucr.edu>.
The first step for getting a project visible to potential students is to
create a JIRA issue detailing the project with the label: GSOC2017
This is how many of the students become aware. Those of you with these
ideas, can you create issues? Here is an example that was discovered and
proposed by a student last year. Basically the two things needed are:
A) The label GSOC2017
B) An Itemized project description
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VXQUERY-188

Hi all,
I was going to work on a command line tool for running queries a few months back but I couldn’t start with the project. If that would a viable project for GSOC, I’ll be glad to get the basic tool working and we could discuss about features for the command-line tool as GSOC projects.
Thanks,

Indeed - it's a good one - so good that someone's taken it up! (There
is a UCR student - not talkative on this list - who's been working on
this one, and whom Steven is helping.)

I might be obsolete :-), but one thing that I think worth looking at is
exploring and implementing other effecient merge policies for LSM indexes.
The good thing is that it is a self-contained problem and can be done
easily in 2-3 months.

My $0.02: writing white box unit tests (e.g., MockIto-based stuff) are
devs' own responsibility..
But I guess that there could be two projects along the line:
1. re-organize our current runtime tests, e.g., avoiding unnecessary
DDL/DMLs.
2. cleanup sporadic failures in integration tests, particularly, managix
start/stop etc.

Taewoo,
I think this one would be too much for a Google Summer of Code student.
I am not sure if we can do this but if we can have a software testing project, then we can have them create automated unit tests for many of our components (Our Http Server comes to mind). That would be very helpful I think but definitely not very exciting.
Cheers,
Abdullah.

I would like to suggest one feature: adding a security feature to the
AsterixDB: setting DB accounts and privileges. Also, use them when access
the Web Interface or API call.

Makes sense, based on a past of not quite finishing. There has been some
discussion from the Summer of Code Apache threads, and it sounds like they
want to do a smaller number of better vetted projects this year, but I
think we could still try for at least one spot.

Re: Google Summer of Code

IMO, each of them could be a two-three month project.
The project itself could be conceptually simple and has a relatively small
scope, but we probably should lift the exit bar.
Here are my thoughts for the exit criteria:
1. the feature reliably works for all edge cases;
2. the implementation does not hack things, which can result in
general-purpose refactoring of other modules;
3. there are regression unit tests and integration tests along with the
code;
4. the code is carefully reviewed by 1-2 committers.
Getting sth. done as a proof-of-concept and then disappearing doesn't seem
a very effective approach..:-)

Do you think these could be a single project (dataset improvements)? I'm
wondering about whether one alone would be a full two-three month project.

I have two proposals for data loaders:
1. add AWS S3 as an external data source;
2. support POSTing a user file on the client side through HTTP into an
internal dataset.
