Dear Apache ZooKeeper Community, My name is *Surafel Temesgen*, and I’m excited to introduce a project I’ve been developing called *Debo* — a lightweight, unified infrastructure management platform designed to monitor and control critical components of the Hadoop and big data ecosystem, including *Apache ZooKeeper*. ------------------------------ 💡 What is Debo?
*Debo* is a *desktop-based*, open-source tool (written in C) that provides *real-time visibility* and *basic operational control* across distributed data services. It currently supports: - *HDFS, YARN, Hive, Kafka* - *Flink, Spark, HBase, Tez* - *ZooKeeper, Atlas, Ranger, Presto, Phoenix, Hue*, and more The mission of Debo is to reduce the complexity of managing distributed systems by offering a *unified CLI and GUI dashboard*—with specific modules to interact with ZooKeeper clusters, nodes, and coordination services. ------------------------------ 📣 Incubator Proposal & Feedback Request Debo has been proposed to the *Apache Incubator*, and I am currently seeking *3 PMC sponsors* to support its journey toward becoming an Apache project. You can find and participate in the discussion here: 🔗 https://lists.apache.org/thread/bp0rqvf4xvmdb3n1m2fzhwym95841s5v Although Debo is not yet officially incubated, a *beta release* is on the way, featuring improved *ZooKeeper node monitoring and ensemble health visualization*. ------------------------------ 🙏 Call for Feedback from the ZooKeeper Community If you're a contributor or user of Apache ZooKeeper, I would truly appreciate your input on: - Ideas for enhancing ZooKeeper integration (e.g., znodes viewer, ensemble health check, real-time alerts) - Operational challenges in ZooKeeper environments that Debo could help simplify - Desired features for fault diagnosis, client session inspection, or write throughput analysis ------------------------------ 📺 Learn More Follow us on YouTube for tutorials, demos, and updates: 👉 https://www.youtube.com/@Debo_teamwork Explore the full source code and roadmap on GitHub: 🛠️ https://github.com/Debo-et/debo-teamwork ------------------------------ 🔧 Coming Soon - An updated README.md with full usage and setup guides - Video walkthroughs for ZooKeeper integration and operations - Dedicated dashboard modules for ZNode tree inspection, ensemble stats, and configuration sync ------------------------------ Thank you for your time and interest. I would love to hear your thoughts, ideas, or concerns—together, we can improve the management and observability of ZooKeeper and its role in distributed systems. Warm regards, *Surafel Temesgen* 🔗 https://github.com/Debo-et/debo-teamwork
