Hi, Polina and Dimitra,

thanks for the nice introduction. The first weeks for Google Summer of Code are usually about community bonding: Get to know your community, chat w/ people on IRC, check out the code base of the UPS, try examples, ask quesions on mail or on IRC.

It's perhaps also a good idea to get a bit of sense of Apache Kafka, especially for stream processing. 

Here is a good intro on Kafka, and Kafka-Streams, and why Spark/Flink etc are not always needed ;-)

I hope you will enjoy the work over the summer! :-)

Cheers,

Matthias

Hi everyone, 

I'm Dimitra, 21 years old from South Africa/Italy. Im currently studying Applied Computing in Waterford, Ireland. I love programming and similarly to Polina I'm most interested in algorithms, big data and trend analysis. 

I can't wait to start work on this project and I'm looking forward to getting more involved in the community!

Hello AeroGear community,

as the AeroGear project lead, I am thrilled to announce that this year we do have two students working on the AeroGear UnifiedPush server, during the Google Summer of Code Projects.

Both students applied to the "Apache Kafka and Apache HBase" improvements project, and did deliver a great paper and detailed implementation plan.

Over the summer Dimitra and Polina will work with us, in the open, in the community on this project. 

The main access point for our community is listed here. Most of us do hang around on IRC, and of course, if there are questions, please send mails to our mailing list.

Details:

https://aerogear.org/community/

Dimitra, and Polina, I'd like to ask you to introduce yourself here on this mailing list (remember to subscribe for it), so that the larger AeroGear community gets to know you better!

Cheers,

Matthias
