Hi all,

Happy New Year!! I hope everyone had a chance to enjoy the holidays.

Below is the first draft of the podling report due on January 4th. Any
comments and suggestions are welcome.


Rya

Rya (pronounced "ree-uh" /rēə/) is a cloud-based RDF triple store that
supports SPARQL queries. Rya is a scalable RDF data management system built
on top of Accumulo. Rya uses novel storage methods, indexing schemes, and
query processing techniques that scale to billions of triples across
multiple nodes. Rya provides fast and easy access to the data through
SPARQL, a conventional query mechanism for RDF data.

Rya has been incubating since 2015-09-18.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

 1. Have more releases as part of the Apache Foundation
 2. Increase diversity of contributors.

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware
of?

 No

How has the community developed since the last report?
