Bigtop stack. The project has achieved a number of goals:
  1. Adaption of Hadoop 3.3.5 to the Bigtop stack and integration with Ambari
  2. Support for Ranger 2.4
  3. Integration of theAmbari infrastructure

Looking ahead, the community is gearing up for the release of Ambari Bigtop
Stack 3.3. The key focuses for this release include:
  1. Upgrading service versions to Bigtop 3.3.0.
  2. Ongoing work to support Phoenix integration.
  3. Adding YARN TimelineService V2 and Registry DNS support (currently
  under review).
  4. In-progress efforts to incorporate Logsearch support.
  5. Successful merger of Ranger 2.4 support into the Ambari Bigtop stack.
  6. Integration of Ambari Infra (already merged).
  7. Exploring support for openEuler OS with Ambari.
  8. Future plans for adding Knox support.
  9. Incorporating a YARN view in Ambari Views.
 10. Addressing the continuous increase of WebSocket connections in the
 Ambari web UI.
 11. Ongoing discussions about upgrading from Python 2 to Python 3.

Active development is happening on py3 and fixing the CVE's. Work is being
done on the ambari-2.8 branch for the next release. At this point the
following releases are considered to be our latest: ambari-2.7.6 ambari-2.6.2

The project's community and its PMC is active and engaged. New contributors
are reaching out to us on the mailing lists and with PRs. There's currently a
nomination thread for the PMC Chair role with the final vote expected in a few
weeks. We have voted in a new committer Arshad Mohammad. The project currently
stands at 16 PMC members and 20 committers.

## Community Health:
Our current PMC appears to be fully engaged and actively working on adding
more PMC and committers to the project. An interesting development in the
overall landscape of bigdata tools is that it appears ever since Hortonworks
was acquired, there has been no significant big data distribution other than
the HDP stack. The packaging code and big data components of HDP have become
closed source, though (similar to how we see a lot of Open Source companies
pulling back from community development). While many existing users are still
using the HDP2 and HDP3.0 big data distributions, they no longer have the
corresponding component source code. This is a frightening situation, as the
lack of access to the source code for debugging when a component fails means
we have lost control over the data platform. Jialiang Cai brought to our
attention that there maybe an increasing user demand for the Ambari community
to collaborate with the Apache Bigtop community to release the first fully
open-source big data distribution since HDP.

## Project Activity:
Team is working on the new Ambari 2.7.6 release that will be independent of
Cloudera HDP repositories
[(see)|https://www.cloudera.com/downloads/paywall-expansion.html].
 The velocity of development is quite indeterministic and largely
influenced by other external activities, but still the new release is
expected in 2-3 months, which will probably be the last one,
unless the new Big Top based Ambari doesn't attract new contributors.

## Community Health:

There is no major change in community health,
still seems to be hard to get a momentum.  5-10 commits monthly.
The goal is to have one final release that is breaks off the dependency
from Hortonworks Data Platform. That could give a fresh new start for those
 who would still like to contribute to Ambari while using Big Top as
big data stack.

## Description:

- Apache Ambari simplifies provisioning, managing, and monitoring of Apache
 Hadoop clusters.

## Issues:

- There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.

## Activity:
- Since the last report, the community switched over from the previous
 reviewboard-based development flow to a more streamlined Github PR model
 via Gitbox.  The Apache Infra team was very responsive and helped make a
 smooth transition.
 Ambari 2.6.1 was released with 123 issues resolved to stabilize the 2.6 line.
 Development activity for the upcoming 2.7 and 3.0 versions remain high.
 3.0 includes major architectural changes to cleanly separate the
 Ambari core and the managed stack/service definitions via management
 packs.  We hope that this would facilitate and encourage contributions from
 the community.  Other major work, such as UI revamp, UX improvement,
 addressing scalability and responsiveness via websockets, additional
 support for various security environments, etc., have been happening in
 parallel as well.

 into "dev" (developer discussions), "reviews" (code review requests), and
 "issues" (JIRA notifications).
 This split has been positive; it cut down unnecessary noise coming from
 automated notifications on "dev" so that developers can easily find emails
 pertaining to actual development-related questions/discussions.
