Hello everyone, I finished the second draft of the report. Please review the
report and your advice is welcome.
## APISIX
APISIX is a cloud-native microservices API gateway, delivering the
ultimate performance, security, open source and scalable platform for
all your APIs and microservices.
APISIX is based on Nginx and etcd. Compared with traditional API
gateways, APISIX has dynamic routing and plug-in hot loading, which is
especially suitable for API management under micro-service system.
APISIX has been incubating since 2019-10-17.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. More Apache Releases and more committers act as release manager to
release a version.
2. More committers and PPMC members.
3. Branding issues in the documentation, code, website, etc.
### 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?
- We have some talks about how to build a good dashboard for impoving
easiness
of using Apache APISIX, Mar 14th. Then it can make more users quick get
start
and learn about this project.
- we release the version 1.0. the verison is import for us with a lot
enhancement
in the core of Apache APISIX, also fixed many bugs come from users's
production
enviroment. more and more company choose using Apache APISIX and feedback
experience
to the community and we're happy to see that feedback.
- we elected the first committer in Europe @sshniro who introduced Apache
APISIX
into the EU's industrial Internet Project and made a lot of optimization
and improvement.
it is good for the promotion of the Apache APISIX all over the world.
