Hi everyone --just confirming that we'll need to lock in the copy in ~6 hou=
rs in order to announce tomorrow morning.
Denis, if you can please forward the copy when ready so the PMC has a chanc=

Thanks so much,

The ASF asks: Have you met Apache Ignite?
Since 1999, The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) has been recognized as a l=
eading source for an array of Open Source software and tools that meet the =
demand for interoperable, adaptable, and sustainable solutions. The all-vol=
unteer ASF develops, stewards, and incubates dozens of enterprise-grade Ope=
n Source projects that power mission-critical applications in financial ser=
vices, aerospace, publishing, government, healthcare, research, infrastruct=
ure, and more. From Abdera to ZooKeeper, the demand for ASF's reliable, com=
munity-driven software continues to grow dramatically across many categorie=
s, including Cloud, IoT, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Mobi=
le, and Big Data, where the Apache Hadoop ecosystem dominates the marketpla=
ce.
Did you know that numerous Fortune 500 enterprises depend on Apache Ignite=
=E2=80=99s in-memory "Fast Data" platform to process large-scale data sets =
in real-time, at orders of magnitude faster than traditional technologies?
We are pleased to showcase Apache Ignite, the high-performance In-Memory Da=
ta Fabric that provides in-memory data caching, partitioning, processing, a=
nd querying components.
Quick peek: Apache Ignite is an integrated and distributed In-Memory Data F=
abric for computing and transacting on large-scale data sets in real-time, =
orders of magnitude faster than possible with traditional disk-based or fla=
sh technologies. It is designed to easily power both existing and new appli=
cations in a distributed, massively parallel architecture on affordable, in=
dustry-standard hardware.
Background: Originally created at GridGain as its flagship in-memory comput=
ing (IMC) platform, Ignite entered the Apache Incubator in September 2014 a=
nd graduated as an Apache Top-Level Project in August 2015.
Why Ignite: Apache Ignite addresses today's Fast Data needs by providing a =
comprehensive in-memory data fabric, which includes a data grid with SQL an=
d transactional capabilities, in-memory streaming, an in-memory file system=
, and more.
Heavily benchmarked, Ignite has been built from the ground up to linearly s=
cale to hundreds of nodes with strong semantics for data locality and affin=
ity data routing to reduce redundant data noise. Ignite data grid is lightn=
ing fast and is one of the fastest implementations of transactional or atom=
ic data in distributed clusters today.
Unlike other Big Data processing solutions, Apache Ignite treats RAM as a p=
rimary storage facility (as opposed to being used exclusively for processin=
g). As such, Ignite's memory-first approach is more efficient and faster: w=
ith improved system indexes, reduced data fetch time, and no delays in a st=
ream content processing, among other benefits.
Additionally --and unique to Apache Ignite-- its SQL Grid eliminates the ne=
ed for painful and challenging migration from relational database to in-mem=
ory data grid (IMDG), alleviating the need for developers to have to rewrit=
e SQL based code to IMDG=E2=80=99s native APIs. This means that developers =
can keep using existing applications and tools written for relational datab=
ases and based on SQL language with very little to no code modification. Ig=
nite SQL Grid is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant, and SQL ANSI-99 com=
pliant.
Using Apache Ignite, developers benefit from:

  =20
   - Data Grid --replicate or partition data in memory within the cluster;
   - In-Memory SQL Grid --add in-memory distributed database capabilities;
   - Advanced Clustering --including logical cluster groups and auto-discov=
er;
   - ODBC Driver --select and modify data stored in a distributed cache;
   - Compute Grid --distribute computations across cluster nodes;
   - Service Grid --cluster-enable any service or data structure;
   - Streaming & CEP --easily stream large volumes of data into Ignite; and
   - Data Structures --distribute own data structure across the cluster.


To solve real-time business issues and meet application requirements for th=
e highest performance and scale, Apache Ignite leverages and integrates a h=
ost of Apache projects including Spark, Hadoop, YARN, and Mesos.
Latest release: Apache Ignite v1.8 on 9 December 2016 under the Apache Lice=
nse v.2.0. More details can be found below and in the release notes.
@@What's under the hood: New in v1.8 is =E2=80=A6 (list 3-5 features/benefi=
