+
+== The Apache Software Foundation Announces Open Source data orchestration
platform Apache® Hop™ as a Top-Level Project
+
+Wilmington, DE, Jan. 18, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Apache Software
Foundation (ASF), the all-volunteer developers, stewards, and incubators of
more than 350 Open Source projects and initiatives, announced today Apache®
Hop™ as a Top-Level Project (TLP).
+
+Apache Hop —the Hop Orchestration Platform— is a flexible, metadata-infused
data orchestration, engineering, and integration platform. The project
originated more than two decades ago as the Extract-Transform-Load (ETL)
platform Kettle (Pentaho Data Integration), was refactored over several years,
and entered the Apache Incubator in September 2020.
+
+"We are pleased to successfully adopt 'the Apache Way' and graduate from the
Apache Incubator," said Bart Maertens, Vice President of Apache Hop. "Apache
Hop enables people of all skill levels to build powerful and scalable data
solutions without the need to write code. As an Apache Top-Level Project, Hop
is developed and used by people across the globe. Hop's full project life cycle
support helps these data teams to successfully build, test and run their
projects in ways that would othe [...]
+
+Using Apache Hop, data professionals can rapidly and affordably facilitate all
aspects of data and metadata orchestration whilst supporting DevOps best
practices, such as testing. Apache Hop’s Java-based visual designer, server,
and configuration tools are easy to set up, deploy, and maintain across
numerous platforms. Features include:
+
+* Lightweight “design once, run anywhere” architecture —workflows and
pipelines can be designed in the Hop GUI and executed locally or remotely on
the Hop native engine, on Apache Flink, Apache Kafka, Apache Spark, Google
Dataflow, or AWS EMR through Apache Beam runtimes;
+* Metadata-driven —every object type in Hop describes how data is read,
manipulated or written, or how workflows and pipelines need to be orchestrated.
In addition, Hop itself is internally metadata-driven, using a kernel
architecture with a robust engine;
+* Visual development environment —intuitive drag-and-drop graphical user
interface (GUI) enables developers to enjoy the ease and productivity of visual
development rather than code. Using Hop, data engineers can focus on business
logic and requirements rather than how it needs to be done;
+* Plug-in integration —more than 250 plugins make it easy to manage ecosystem
complexity, and add new functionality; and
+* Built-in lifecycle management —enables developers, engineers, and
administrators to manage, test, deploy, and switch between projects, workflows,
pipelines, environments, purposes, Git versions and more —all from the Hop GUI.
+
+Apache Hop has been designed to work in any scenario: on-premises, on a cloud,
on a bare OS, in containers, IoT environments, large datasets, and more, on
Windows, Linux, and OSX.
+
+Many of the thousands of organizations in finance, retail, supply chain, and
other sectors that use Kettle (Pentaho Data Integration; the precursor to
Apache Hop) have started to look into Hop or already are in the process of
upgrading to Hop.
+
+"I'm very happy that we can now safely collaborate with any company or person
across the global community under the umbrella of the Apache Software
Foundation on something as cool as Apache Hop," said Matt Casters, Chief
Solution Architect at Neo4j and member of the Apache Hop Project Management
Committee.
+
+"We started adopting Apache Hop in our data integration projects in early 2021
because of its flexibility, scalability and ease of use, in various scenarios
ranging from classical DWH ETL processes to highly critical, real time
processes," said Sergio Ramazzina, CEO and Chief Architect at Serasoft S.r.l.,
and member of the Apache Hop Project Management Committee. "We are impressed by
how responsive the community is in solving issues and helping users approaching
the platform --an importa [...]
+
+"This graduation is just the beginning for Hop, and is proof that great
communities build great software. The entire Hop community would like to thank
the Apache Software Foundation for making this possible, especially our mentors
who guided us through the Incubator," added Maertens. "We invite everyone to
download and try Hop, join our chat and become part of the Hop community."
