Attachment X: Report from the Apache Gora Project [Lewis John McGibbney] ## Description: The Apache Gora open source framework provides an in-memory data model and persistence for big data. Gora supports persisting to column stores, key value stores, document stores and RDBMSs, and analyzing the data with extensive Apache Hadoop™ MapReduce support.
## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention at this time. ## Activity: Gora has seen a reasonable amount of activity. We were succuessful in pushing our 0.7 release which incorporates a number of GSoC efforts from 2016 as well as some key upgrades to various datastores to align them with other projects. ## Health report: The project is successfully retaining interest with several PMC/community members VOTE'ing on our 0.7 release candidate. We've added a numbef of new modules as a result of continued GSoC participation. It is probably a good time for the community to reach back out to Apache projects and see where else Gora can/should integrate. ## PMC changes: - Currently 23 PMC members. - No new PMC members added in the last 3 months - Last PMC addition was Kevin Ratnasekera on Thu Jan 12 2017 ## Committer base changes: - Currently 23 committers. - No new committers added in the last 3 months - Last committer addition was Kevin Ratnasekera at Wed Dec 07 2016 ## Releases: - 0.7 was released on Mon Mar 20 2017 ## Mailing list activity: Out mailing list subscriptions are increasing which is great. - dev@gora.apache.org: - 75 subscribers (up 1 in the last 3 months): - 297 emails sent to list (45 in previous quarter) - u...@gora.apache.org: - 79 subscribers (up 2 in the last 3 months): - 7 emails sent to list (21 in previous quarter) ## JIRA activity: - 8 JIRA tickets created in the last 3 months - 10 JIRA tickets closed/resolved in the last 3 months -- http://home.apache.org/~lewismc/ @hectorMcSpector http://www.linkedin.com/in/lmcgibbney
