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. Complete a successful 1st release of Memory repo to DIST and Nexus. This is a blocking issue.
  2. Finish refactoring/releasing the other repos, which depend on #1.
  3. Move, refactor Website.

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

As a newbie podling, my experience so far has been exasperating. Finding how to accomplish key tasks is difficult. The information is spread all over and seems to always be couched in language written by lawyers not developers. As a result the essential details are often missing.

I have run into multiple roadblocks, especially with regards to permissions.
I have to keep filing new tickets with INFRA to setup access to infrastructure that should have all been automatically setup once we were accepted as a podling.

How has the community developed since the last report?

Not much. I wish I could spend more time on this, but I can't get off first-base getting the migration done.

How has the project developed since the last report?

We continue to evolve the project's functionality with commits to our GitHub repos.

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.

  1. I have open INFRA issues that have not yet been addressed and there will be more to come.
  2. I could REALLY use some 1:1 help from an experienced release engineer (perhaps from another project), that is very familiar with the Apache/Maven release process and POM to get us off the ground. Once we have created our first release, we can continue from there. But getting this first one is out is turning out to be quite a challenge. I don't think we need more than an hour with an experienced Apache release engineer, our project just isn't that complicated.
