### IPMC/Shepherd notes:



--------------------
## DataSketches

DataSketches is an open source, high-performance library of stochastic
streaming algorithms commonly called "sketches" in the data sciences.
Sketches are small, stateful programs that process massive data as a stream
and can provide approximate answers, with mathematical guarantees, to
computationally difficult queries orders-of-magnitude faster than
traditional, exact methods.

DataSketches has been incubating since 2019-03-30.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

  1. Adding more committers. We added one last quarter and we have a
     few more individuals that we have been considering.
  2. We have created a draft Maturity model, which is undergoing review.
  3. Prepare for Graduation.

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
  
  No.

### How has the community developed since the last report?
  Public presentations since last report:

  - ACM-KDD conference in August.
  - DataCon2020 in Taiwan in September.
  - ApacheCon 2020 in September.

  We are seeing increased interest from scientific communities that 
  work with big data and platforms that want to use our code 
  (e.g. Apache Impala).

### How has the project developed since the last report?
  
  We released a new minor release of C++: 2.1.0.
  
  Based on feedback from our community, we are developing a Docker 
  deployable version of our library, which hopefully will be 
  released soon.
  
  We are working on a brand new sketch as part of the Quantiles family.

  To the best of our knowledge all of our licensing and website issues
  have been addressed and have been implemented in formal releases or
  are in master-branch staging, awaiting the next release.

  We are continuing to respond to new user's requests for help.

### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive?
Are things falling through the cracks? If so, please list any
open issues that need to be addressed.

  Generally our mentors have been very helpful. However, a
  little more help from our mentors on timely approval of
  our releases would be appreciated. Our last release took
  18 days to get 3 IPMC members to vote. We don't know what
  is typical, but this seems a bit long. Please advise. 

### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?
 
  To the best of our knowledge, yes.

  * Are 3rd parties respecting and correctly using the podlings
   name and brand?

   As far as we know, yes.

  * If not what actions has the PPMC taken to correct this?

    We have not had to face this issue yet.

  * Has the VP, Brand approved the project name?

   Yes, and it is clearly stated as such on
   http://incubator.apache.org/projects/datasketches.html

## Doris

Doris is a MPP-based interactive SQL data warehousing for reporting and
analysis.

Doris has been incubating since 2018-07-18.

### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?

None

### How has the community developed since the last report?

1. Since the last report, we have added 21 contributors and 1 committers. There are currently 121 contributors and 20 committers.

   This helps Doris become more widely known

### How has the project developed since the last report?

1. We released the first version that does not include WIP files(v0.13).
   We think this means that the Doris project has now fully complied with the Apache specification requirements.

files to make sure they reference the project as "Apache ECharts" and
correct the Website reference to be Apache domain.

redirecting from https://gallery.echartsjs.com/ to a domain that does
not contain "echarts" https://www.makeapie.com.

### How has the community developed since the last report?

Thomas Huang delivered a (virtual) keynote address at the 2020 ApacheCon
@Home on 9/29 and discussed our creation of the Apache Science Data
Analytics Platform (SDAP) as a professional open source Analytics Center
Framework (ACF) and its growing list of NASA and international applications.

The COVERAGE (CEOS Ocean Variables Enabling Research and Applications for
GEO, https://coverage.ceos.org/technology/#software) development team at
JPL completed an initial deployment of SDAP on European cloud platform,
WEkEO (https://wekeo.eu/).  Paired with a previously deployed SDAP on
Amazon Web Services (AWS), an objective of COVERAGE is to enable joint
analytics leveraging geographically distributed SDAP installations that
host distinct yet compatible American and European satellite-based and in
situ ocean-related datasets.

Additional deployments of SDAP that are currently being maintained:

   - NASA Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECCO) (
   https://ecco-group.org)
   - NASA Gravity Recovery & Climate Experiment (GRACE) Follow-On (
   https://grace.jpl.nasa.gov)
   - NASA Sea Level Change Portal (https://sealevel.nasa.gov)


### How has the project developed since the last report?

Three new features:
- SDAP-292 Add Cassandra authentication support to delete_by_query.py script
- SDAP-278 Cassandra authentication for webapp
- SDAP-258 Update Deseason Algorithm to Use Precomputed Climatologies

Two improvements:
- SDAP-284 Collection Manager to support recursive directory structures
- SDAP-285 Solr not indexing lat/lon

Eight bug fixes:
- SDAP-282 Support configuring dimension names and projection during
ingestion
- SDAP-291 netcdf parsing error with GMPE dataset in Granule Ingester
- SDAP-280 Collection Manager should not block when checking ingestion
history
- SDAP-279 Collection Manager does not pick up fs events with NAS mount
- SDAP-267 config operator, manage git url or branch update in the helm chart
- SDAP-261 bug fixes for new ingestion system (granule ingestion & collection manager)
- SDAP-277 Better error handling in Granule Ingester
- SDAP-281 bigdata ingestion feedback (reading time)
