I began to contribute to HAWQ this year and now become the HAWQ committer. I wrote near 100 commits<https://github.com/apache/incubator-hawq/commits?author=xunzhang> to make HAWQ better! I am a believer of open source since I benefit a lot from open source projects and I know the true meaning of it. I think open source is more than just publishing the code. It is delivering comprehensive documents/tutorials, collecting users/developers/feedbacks, establish discussion/comparison, solving confusions/issues, reproducing good or bad results, making clear roadmap, keeping long-term development, treating the project as our own child. Moreover, Apache Software Foundation is an elite community in the open source world, there are lots of high-quality projects, developers and users. I started my career 2012 at Douban which is a social network website connecting people with interest such as book, movie, music, photo, blog and so on. I was working as an algorithm engineer there, focused on developing large-scale machine learning platforms and optimizing recommendation engine. I am the author of Paracel<http://paracel.io/> open source project, which is a distributed computational framework designed for machine learning, graph algorithms and scientific computing. Paracel wants to simplify the distributed and communication details for model developers and data scientists, lets them be concentrated on model developing. During this period, I also created the Plato: a real-time recommendation system. This work got very outstanding results on douban.fm<http://douban.fm> product. Plato changed the architecture of Douban's offline processing way to do machine learning. It's a very exciting jouney with HAWQ! In my point of view, SQL engine is a super critical infrastructure in the big data ecosystem. I have tried to design a parallel programming language named Girl(for some reason it's still at very early stage), but no matter how simple it will be, it supposes developers following some paradigms or programming idioms/patterns. But SQL on the other side, is the only existing language that erases the distributed coding logic: we just write SQLs. I definitely believe HAWQ could be one of the best SQL engines on Hadoop ecosystem with all of our collaborative effort including HAWQ users, HAWQ developers, HDB custormers, Pivotal FTEs, HAWQ competitors, Apache mentors and so on. Look forward to hear more people with diversed background joining HAWQ family. Beers 2016-12-20 18:03 GMT+08:00 Wen Lin <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>: Hi, All, My name is LinWen. I joined Pivotal HAWQ Beijing team since November, 2014. Before that, I am an engineer of VMware. I have implemented some features for HAWQ, like new fault tolerance service, libyarn, etc. I believe HAWQ can be the best SQL on Hadoop engine with our joint effort.

I have been focusing on HAWQ development and product management since 2012 when I joined Pivotal. I experienced and contributed in HAWQ's all growth path, from birth, Alpha, 1.X, 2.0... My main covering fields about HAWQ include three parts: 1) Storage such as internal table storage, HAWQ Input/OutputFormat, hawq extract/register,etc 2) Dispatcher and interconnect 3) Security including Ranger integration, Kerberos and LDAP. Before Pivotal, I worked at IBM for more than 2 years and focused on providing data service inside of our public cloud provision. The data service includes RDS(relational data service) which can provision a distributed relational database based on DB2 Federation, and NOSQL service which is based on HBase. I believe HAWQ can become more successful with our joint effort! Welcome to reach me or this mail list for any HAWQ or other kinds of issues :) Thanks Lili 2016-12-15 4:45 GMT+08:00 Dan Baskette <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>: I will add to the email flow… I am Dan Baskette, I am the Director of Tech Marketing for Pivotal and cover Pivotal HDB/Apache HAWQ, Pivotal Greenplum Database, and Apache MADlib. I started my career at Sun Microsystems, and have been working for EMC/Greenplum and now Pivotal since 2000….a LONG time in quite a number of roles. I was part of the team that launched Greenplum’s first Hadoop distribution and was around for the birth of HAWQ or as we called it when it was in it’s infancy…. GOH or Greenplum on Hadoop. I have been actively running some webcasts on various HAWQ how-to topics for Hortonworks, so you can check those out on their site. Hoping this community really takes off in a big way!

I am Ruilong Huo and I am from HDB/HAWQ engineering team in Pivotal. I am from Teradata and joined Pivotal after that. It's my honor to be part of HAWQ project at its early stage. I am a fan of RDBMS (especially MPP database), big data, and cloud technology that changes the IT infrastructure of the enterprises and helps to do information transformation in a very large extent. I hope that with joint effort from hawq community, it will become even greater product in big data area, especially in SQL-on-Hadoop category.

I'm new-ish here, and not so much from a coding background as from networking. I'm from Cisco Systems, where I focused on analytics use cases in telecommunications, particularly for mobile network operators, for service assurance, customer care, and customer profiling. (also, as you're introducing yourselves, we'd love to hear what use cases you're involved with, too). About a year before I left my group at Cisco acquired an MPP database of its own -- ParStream -- for its IoT and fog computing use cases, so it's interesting to come here and learn about the architecture and applications of HAWQ. I hope to help make your experience with HAWQ a good one. If I can help in any way, please reach out to me directly or on the list. Cheers, Bob Bob Glithero | Product Marketing Pivotal, Inc.

Getting to know each other is super useful (and can be fun! ;-)). I'll go next: I am Roman (your friendly neighborhood mentor). I hang around a lot of ASF big data projects (as a committer and a PMC member), but lately I've been gravitating towards IoT as well (Apache Mynewt). I started my career at Sun microsystems back at a time when Linux wasn't even 1.x and I've been doing enterprise software ever since. I was lucky enough to get to work on the original Hadoop team at Yahoo! and fall in love with not one but two elephants (Hadoop and Postgres). Recently I've assumed a position of VP of Technology at ODPi and I'm still hoping to MHGA! My secret weapon is Apache Bigtop (which co-founded) and I'm not afraid to use it! I'm here to help as much as I can to make sure that this community evolves into a vibrant, self-governed, exciting place worthy of being a top level project (TLP) at ASF. If you have any questions or ideas that you may want to bounce off of me -- please don't hesitate to reach out directly or on the mailing list. Thanks, Roman.
