## 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. Finish the transfer and bring-up of our website to 
     github.com/apache/...  This is now in process.
  2. __Team Interactions:__ We want to have our exchanges on the ASF 
     Slack DataSketches-dev channel posted to our dev@datasketches.a.o 
     list on a daily basis for improved visibility and searchability. 
     We have an open INFRA ticket on this issue. 
     
     We are searching for a solution to provide more open access to 
     our video conference sessions when we have them. We are in the
     process of moving more of our interactions into the slack 
     DS-dev channel and dev@ list. This is a culture change for us 
     and will take some getting used to. We clearly want open 
     access to our team discussions.
  3. We would like to see a few more folks 
     join our contributors list.  We have several folks that
     have come forward and offered help because they are interested
     in the project.  This is great.  It is our hope that they will
     grow into active contributors.

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

### How has the community developed since the last report?
  * We have added 1 new Mentor, Dave Fisher (thank you!) to our project
    and we have been approached by another Apache member 
    who would also like to be a mentor, and eventually a contributor 
    as well. This is very positive!  

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

  * We have now managed 7 releases,  6 Java releases and 1 C++ release.
    We have one more C++ release pending.  These are across 6 different
    components of the DataSketches library.  With the last pending C++
    release, all of the code components targeted for release will 
    be complete.

  1. Continue to build our community. It is glad to see that more developers joined us and became contributors. But we still need more controlled developers to us to make Doris more diverse in the developer community. 
  2. Improve the documents and website as well. Currently, most of documents are in Chinese and most of English docs are translated by machine. We are working on it.
