Hi,

Apache Eagle started incubation in October last year. With the whole year's
tireless efforts, this podling has made great progress in delivering useful
and complete features in monitoring large Apache Hadoop clusters, being
open to grow community, and operating the project in Apache way.

Today with great support from our mentors and Eagle community[1][2], I
would like bring the discussion of graduating Apache Eagle to top level
project with proposed resolution below.

The Apache Eagle community has discussed graduation for some time and
prepared maturity self-assessment [3]. Also here I want to list all the
facts that Eagle community has achieved during incubation so far.

> Key features and framework improvement
In feature wise, Apache Eagle expands from supporting HDFS audit log
monitoring at the beginning to a complete spectrum of monitoring features,
e.g. Apache Hadoop JMX metrics, Yarn applications, Job performance, Cluster
resource usage etc.

In order for supporting numerous use cases in monitoring large Apache
Hadoop clusters, Apache Eagle also delivered framework artifacts to make
integrating new monitoring application very easy. The framework artifacts
include stream based CEP alert engine, monitoring application lifecycle
management framework and flexible query language backed by Apache HBase.

> Releases
2 formal releases were finished and now 0.5 release which is important
milestone is in baking staging and will be out soon.

> Community growth and product adoptions.
5 new committers from different companies joined Apache Eagle as committer
since incubation. Now totally Apache Eagle has 14 committers. Also we are
glad to see that some companies have deployed Apache Eagle as monitoring
solution for Apache Hadoop clusters.

> Development activities
700 + pull requests from 20 individual contributors, 800+ JIRA tickets
(resolved ~600).  Community has been continuously active.

> Conferences
We attended many conferences e.g. Hadoop summit, Strata+Hadoop world, QCon
etc. to evangelize Apache Eagle's ability in monitoring large Apache Hadoop
clusters and learn how to improve.

Now we are going to propose the following board resolution for graduating
to top level project.


Resolution:
