## Description: The mission of Apache ShardingSphere is the creation and maintenance of software related to a database clustering system providing data sharding, distributed transactions, and distributed database management ## Project Status: Current project status: Good Issues for the board: None ## Membership Data: Apache ShardingSphere was founded 2020-04-15 (4 years ago) There are currently 60 committers and 20 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 3:1. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Guangyuan Wang on 2023-08-23. - Zihao Niu was added as committer on 2023-11-21 ## Project Activity: Preparing for the release of version 5.5.0, with milestone adjustments to the encrypt API and enhanced pluggable architecture capabilities. There has also been a significant improvement in theoperability of DistSQL. Books on ShardingSphere are currently in the publishing proofreading process, and it is hoped that they can be released as soon as possible in the next quarter. ## Community Health: With the stability of the project's functionality and community, there are fewer and fewer modifications and disruptive changes to product features. More and more users are using ShardingSphere stably, and there is a decreasing trend in PRs and issues on GitHub. The activity of the project tends to be inversely proportional to the increase in maturity. With the connection of more types of databases in the future, it is hoped that the activity of the community can be increased again.

There are still several related project on GitHub org in ShardingSphere
ecosystem, before or during project joined the ASF incubator, such as
extension modules, extension module examples and acceptance test are not
in Apache repo.
We have already moved some extension modules into Apache repo,
and plan to transfer all of them soon.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
1. Ya Li, Zhiyi Yan have been voted and joined as committer.

new contributors during last report.
We are happy to see the community are growing up.
3. Over 100 companies have confirmed they are using ShardingSphere
through issue report, and show at powered-by page[1].
Individuals from different companies and communities have provided
some patches to feed back ShardingSphere community.
4. Share a topic for Apache way and how to join ShardingSphere community
in Apache meetup at Tsinghua University.
5. Finish Podling Maturity Assessment for ShardingSphere[2].
6. Plan to establish a co-meetup with Apache DolphinScheduler(incubator)
in Beijing at Dec 8th.

1. Clear Brand issues with other ecosystem projects.
2. Further ASF culture and processes.
3. Make more apache releases.
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
1. Have two Apache releases already. There are 4.0.0-RC1 and 4.0.0-RC2.
All licenses and checklist are fine.
2. There are other several related project on GitHub org in ShardingSphere
ecosystem, before or during project joined the ASF incubator, such as
extension modules, UI, benchmark and acceptance test, they were using
ShardingSphere-* prefix in project name, which may cause brand issue.
We are trying to fix these. All ShardingSphere-* have been renamed to
OpenSharding-*, and all old releases with ShardingSphere- are declared
for not apache release.
We have already transfer benchmark and UI project to apache repo and
plan to merge extension modules and acceptance test into Apache repo.
3. Another brand related issue is ShardingSphere in DockerHub, including
some binary releases, which have been moved apache release versions
to ASF Infra
- https://hub.docker.com/r/apache/sharding-proxy
All of these are only including the approved releases.
Right now, the brand issues are under control, so we think board or
IPMC may do not need do any actions for now.

### IPMC/Shepherd notes:
Justin Mclean: The stats show don't mean much to people outside your
project, please drop them from future reports and include commentary
on how you project is growing instead.
Given there lots of activity I would expect this report to have a lot more
detail.
A quick look at that stats, without explanation, suggests to me that this
project is in trouble,. You have a large number of contributors, and
outstanding pull request, but are not voting committers in.
Please discuss with your mentors what the committer bar should be and
what it means to be a committer.
