What was the progress of Dragonfly being rewritten in golang from Java? It looks like it’s mostly done? dragonflyoss/Dragonfly#346

Yes, We have finished that in 0.4.0 version. Currently Dragonfly is totally written in Golang. Now latest version of dragonfly is 0.4.3. We will release 0.5.x to add more essential features from the community. And in about October, we will launch the GA version of 1.0.0.

We using dragonfly to distribute large AI resource files to cluster nodes. We hope that dragonfly enters the incubation stage. I am from iflytek. Dragonfly help us manage the resource files and Practice cloud natives to benefit us a lot

The CNCF SIG Storage has completed a review of Dragonfly.

The project presented to us August 28th 2019: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sl7ZDt7rx4M

We had some questions which were captured by the project here: https://github.com/dragonflyoss/community/blob/master/meetings/cncf-sig-storage-feedback.md

I completed a basic test deployment in a test environment covering basic functionality and failover scenarios and, in general, Dragonfly appears to be simple to deploy and a focus on low overhead. Failover and operational maintenance seemed straightforward and operations like image pulls could complete even while some nodes where in a failed state.

We had some further queries that were captured by the team and detailed responses are included here:
dragonflyoss/Dragonfly#1205
dragonflyoss/Dragonfly#1204

The CNCF SIG Storage raised this on the agenda for 12th February and recommend move to incubation.

Thanks @amye can you kick off the vote after DD is confirmed, I think we are almost there

Thanks @amye can you kick off the vote tomorrow?

@caniszczyk Sig Storage and @chira001 made a very detailed review for Dragonfly. While I am afraid that we still need a TOC sponsor and Due Diligence which is requested in the cncf-toc channel https://lists.cncf.io/g/cncf-toc/topic/67574577#3930.

/cc @amye

I’m happy to do it (sponsor and run the due diligence.)

@sheng-liang any update with the due diligence?
Please feel free to tell me if I could help anything. Thx.

@allencloud I'm working through the documents. I will need your help connecting me with a few users and committers. I will talk to them, then summarize and post my findings publicly. I hope to verify that Dragonfly 1) is used in production by 3 end users 2) has a healthy number of committers.

Hey @sheng-liang, checking in here on status. Thanks!

I'm done with reviewing the project and the due-diligence. The due-diligence Google doc has been updated. What's the next step?

Thanks for your great work. @sheng-liang
With the due-diligence done, I think the next step is to kick the incubation vote. /cc @amye @caniszczyk

Yes, @sheng-liang should call for a formal vote, here is fine.

I have reviewed the project and the due diligence doc. I have talked to a number of Dragonfly end users and committers and have verified that: 1) Dragonfly is used in production by 3 end users listed in due diligence doc and 2) Dragonfly has a healthy number of committers. My feedback has been incorporated into the due diligence doc. I believe the Dragonfly project is ready for entering incubation. I'd like to call for a TOC vote.

Thank you, I will post the vote to @cncf/toc!

Welcome to the CNCF incubator :)
