DataSketches
DataSketches is an open source, high-performance library of stochastic streaming algorithms commonly called "sketches" in the data sciences. Sketches are small, stateful programs that process massive data as a stream and can provide approximate answers, with mathematical guarantees, to computationally difficult queries orders-of-magnitude faster than traditional, exact methods.
DataSketches has been incubating since 2019-03-30.
Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
- Our vote letter on general@ has no responses from IPMC for over 72 hours And at least one of our 3 Mentors is on vacation for the next 2 weeks. This lack of response is crippling our ability to move forward.
- Continue to perfect the release process.
- After we get this first release, we need to finish migrating the remaining repos.
Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
- Yes. #1 above. We only have 3 Mentors and we need all 3 to vote, Yet, only 2 have participated so far, and one of them is now on vacation for the next 2 weeks.
How has the community developed since the last report?
None. We can't get off first base with our first release!
How has the project developed since the last report?
We continue to evolve the project and make commits.
