As ready-made resulting packages, it is planned to make only completely independent parts of Apache Ignite. At the moment only Ignite core part and Ignite CLI can work as standalone applications and these applications should be distributed as OS specific packages for all supported platforms. (Linux, Windows, MacOs). However, we will publish not only compiled packages, there is a need to publish individual parts of Apache Ignite that are not standalone applications, and we need to provide the user with the access to these parts. The prime candidate for this is the ignite-client with all its subparts (JDBC, SQL Api, etc Api). More about this will be described in paragraph Publishing.

Three packages will be provided:

1. ignite3-cli  — Ignite 3 CLI tool. Used if one wants to manage a remote cluster.
2. ignite3-db —   — Ignite 3 core artifacts. Used if one wants to start nodes locally.
3. ignite3  —  meta package that includes both ignite3-cli and ignite3-db.

...

This is a meta package that includes everything listed for the other two packages.

Publishing

The issue of publishing assembled packages should be highlighted in a separate paragraph.
