Seeking interest and a champion for bifroest - a backend for graphite-web, on Apache Cassandra

2014-10-07 Thread Harald Kraemer
Hi, we have been allowed to open-source one of our company internal projects - currently called Bifroest. Bifroest is a storage backend for graphite-web, based on Apache Cassandra. I'm quite happy about this, and now I'm in the process of finding the best options and means to do so. This mail

Hi Bifroest sounds like a very interesting project and within my field of experience. I have worked about 3/4 year to implement circonus in ASF (It was then decided for good reasons not to use it for alerting), and before that I designed SCADA systems to monitor/control electrical grids. today I

Hi Harald I have been working on a similar project which enables carbon to have a plugable backend storage system that leverages Apache Cassandra for storage. I opened pull requests in both carbon and graphite for the plugable backend portion and the Cassandra backend is still in the works. Your

Hi, am I looking at the right pull requests with graphite-project/carbon#210 and #216? Quite interesting. Sadly, I don't think I could provide exactly that python API with our existing storage input frontend. Just look out for the issues we fixed in

Hey Harold Those pull requests came after mine, see carbon#139 [1]. Nice catch in 698, in ours we took a different approach and loaded a custom finder within the database plugin [2] itself. Looking forward to comparing notes and helping where I can -Jake [1]:

Hi. I have had a look at your release and it looks good, I could not find any formal errors. But I took a closer look at the release vote thread, because a failing unit test is a serious bad quality signal for me. Whenever I test new software, I download it, build it, then run all test cases

The unit test was only on Java 1.8. That problem will be resolved in the next release which will be in roughly a month from now. The current primary target of Drill is 1.7. The number of reviewers for the release is an indication of how the community doesn't view Java 1.8 as a critical platform

Hi Jan, The issue was discussed on the release voting thread and there seems to be an agreement in the community that it may not be worth holding the release to include Java 8 support since 1.) Among most of the users, as evident on the vote thread, very few are running Java 8 in dev and test
