## Hamilton
Hamilton is a lightweight in-process framework to define,
execute, and observe directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) that express
data transformations. In Hamilton one can express complex DAGs
of transformations, e.g. from dataframe transformations (using

software engineering API request and LLM API based workflows. Observability
hooks are built into the framework. The Hamilton UI is a self-
hostable service to captureobservability output from workflow
runs. Apache Software Foundation incubation will establish
Hamilton as a community-driven standard.

Hamilton has been incubating since 2025-04-12.

databases, key-value stores, object storage, LLMs services, function
schedulers) managed by the platform's core: the operator, along with tooling
(the CLI) to simplify (and interact with) deployments, integrated ide and
starter application and optimized runtimes integrated with the staters.

OpenServerless has been incubating since 2024-06-17.

  3. We have added a new openserverless-build project with the objective of preparare OpenWhisk 2 multiplatform images tailor made 
     for our project and we aim to provide a native executable for the standalone component, with the objective of providing a lighter development environment.

Polaris is a catalog for data lakes. It provides new levels of choice,
flexibility and control over data, with full enterprise security and Apache
Iceberg interoperability across a multitude of engines and infrastructure.

Polaris has been incubating since 2024-08-09.

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

  2. Grow the community
  3. Fill out the maturity model

### 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?

Regarding the user community:
* On Slack, since March, we have 17 new users.
* On GitHub Issues, we had 11 new issues created by new users.
* On the dev mailing list, we had 196 messages in March, 144 in April, 279 in May, mostly from Polaris committers/contributors. It seems the users prefer to ask questions on Slack. 

Regarding the dev community:
* We had 7 Pull Requests from 7 new contributors
* We are discussing with the Apache XTable community (for multi table formats support)
* Community meetings happened on 2025-04-03 and 2025-04-17 (recorded and publicly available)

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

We added the polaris-tools repo (https://github.com/apache/polaris-tools) to host parts of the project (benchmark tool, catalogs migrator, ...) not directly related to the Polaris "catalog server".

Highlights in the project developed:
* We refactored the persistence layer to use pure JDBC now and we deprecated EclipseLink use. 
* We are working on gather server and tool in an unique distribution
* Several proposals are in discussion right now (event/observe API, async tasks, spark client, ...)

In preparation for 1.0-incubating release, we are voting 0.10-incubating release.
We are focusing on 1.0-incubating release, the release process should start quickly after 0.10-incubating release vote pass.

## Texera

Texera is an open-source system to support collaborative data
science, AI, and ML             using GUI-based workflows. Our vision is to
develop a system to support cloud             platforms on which users can
easily analyze data and use AI/ML techniques provided             as
operators. Users with various backgrounds, irrespective of whether they know
coding or not, can collaborate on the same project to construct a pipeline.
Experienced users can use programming languages such as Python, R, Java, and
Scala             to implement customized computation logic. The platform
allows users to pause the             execution of a workflow to investigate
the operator states, and resume the execution             at a later time.
The platform can be used by a research community to publish valuable
resources such as data sets, workflows, and ML models to share their domain-
specific             knowledge and support reproducibility of scientific
research. The platform also allows             users to elastically request
computing resources from public clouds for             computationally-
intensive tasks.

Texera has been incubating since 2025-04-12.

## Training

The Training project aims to develop resources which can be used for
training purposes in various media formats, languages and for various Apache
and non-Apache target projects.

Training has been incubating since 2019-02-21.

For the last few months we have been discussing graduation, and getting our various ducks in rows. We believe we are ready to graduate, but have only four people who have elected to stay on as PMC members, which seems to us too small a number. So right now we are discussing what the next steps are -- go ahead and graduate, or attempt to grow that number a little.

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

  A. Grow the community a little more.
-- or --
  B. Decide that a small dedicated community is better than languishing in obscurity forever.

### 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?

While discussing graduation, we had a number of people indicate that they are no longer engaged enough to move to that final step.

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

We have continued to slowly work on content. And one of our number got a talk accepted at Community Over Code 2025 to present about the project, so hopefully several of us will be there for that.

  ### How would you assess the podling's maturity?

We believe that we're ready to move out of our parents' basement and into the real world. Any day now.

### Date of last release:

  XXXX-XX-XX

### When were the last committers or PPMC members elected?

rbowen was added to the PPMC in September 2024.

### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive?

The mentors are awesome.

### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?

Our brand/trademarks are fine, and we have done a name check.

## Wayang

Wayang is a cross-platform data processing system that aims at decoupling
the business logic of data analytics applications from concrete data
processing platforms, such as Apache Flink or Apache Spark. Hence, it tames
the complexity that arises from the "Cambrian explosion" of novel data
processing platforms that we currently witness.

Wayang has been incubating since 2020-12-16.

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

  1. Working on one more release before 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?

1 more PPMC member, 7 new contributors, 1 new slack member since the last report.

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

Progress on multiple fronts:

	- Upgraded to Java 17
	- Extended functionality for Wayang's ML capabilities
	- Extended functionality for Wayang's FL capabilities
	- Extended functionality for Wayang's Scala API
	- Extended functionality for Wayang's SQL API
	- Several new operators
