Thomas,

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer. That is very exciting news and 
I am definitely interested in alpha testing version 4. Would you please provide 
the quick-start doc?

Thanks again,
Mike

Hello Mike,



In 2014, it was robinhood version 2.5.

Robinhood is now at version 3.1.5. This version (3.0) brings generic policies 
(you can schedule/execute any action on the filesystem) and advanced action 
scheduling options. This version is now stable, so there is no big change in 
this branch except bug fixes or adaptation for new lustre features.

You can take a look at the Changelog for more details about robinhood 
evolutions: https://github.com/cea-hpc/robinhood/wiki/ChangeLog



Beyond robinhood 3, we are currently focused on developing robinhood 4. This is 
a full (disrupting) rewrite of the project.

There was a presentation at this year’s LAD: 
https://www.eofs.eu/_media/events/lad19/robinhood-v4-progress-report.pdf

This also explains why there is no major evolution in robinhood 3 today.

Rbh4 is first implemented on MongoDB for higher performance and scalability, 
and will use technologies like kafka for scalable changelog processing.



If you are interested in the project, you are welcome to participate to code 
the review of version 4: 
https://review.gerrithub.io/q/project:cea-hpc%252Frobinhood+branch:v4

If you are interested in alpha testing, please tell us, we will provide you 
with a quick start doc.



So as you can see, the project is more alive than ever, and is going to come 
out with great new things for the next years!



Regards,

Thomas

Hello,



We've recently decided to re-evaluate Robinhood for use in our center after 
several years. After reading through the Wiki on GitHub and doing some testing 
with version 3.1.5, it doesn't appear that much has changed since we last 
evaluated it in 2014. I've also noticed that there hasn't been a user group 
meeting since 2017. Is Robinhood still being actively managed?



Best regards,

Mike Gilbert
