## BlueMarlin

BlueMarlin will develop a web service to add intelligence functionality to a
plain ad system.

BlueMarlin has been incubating since 2020-06-09.

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

1. DL-based performance forecasting 
2. DL-based spend recommendation
3. DL-based Inventory allocation

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


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


### How has the project developed since the last report?
The following features were added to predictor_dl_model:
1.	We added new features of user residency and user IPL (IP location).

2. We added pipeline and product tags to config file. Config file has placeholders to resolve the names of intermediate tables instead of having user to fill them up.
 	
3. We pushed model-stats into Hive instead of Elasticsearch. This makes the pipeline to create one set of coherent tables that are associates with a pipeline run instead of having the artifacts into different types of data storage.

There are no known brand and naming issues. 
The PPMC only uses "Apache Hop (Incubating)" as the official project name and has explicitly called "Project Hop" deprecated as of the moment of acceptance in the Incubator.

## Livy

Livy is web service that exposes a REST interface for managing long running
Apache Spark contexts in your cluster. With Livy, new applications can be
built on top of Apache Spark that require fine grained interaction with many
Spark contexts.

Livy has been incubating since 2017-06-05.

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

1. Start preparing towards graduation
2.
3.

### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
Apache Livy is a stable project that is used widely in conjuction with Apache Spark. 
It seems to have met its project goals and there is not much active development going 
on as a result. 2020 may definitely not be the best year for community activity and Livy 
certainly seems to have taken a hit on this aspect. Seeking guidance from the IPMC/Board 
on what could be next steps for the project. Its not very active but at the 
same time its not a defunct/unused project.
