Hi Matthias, 

Being a GSoC student myself 6 years ago, I am super interested in being a mentor. However, I am out of ideas since the thing I am interested, Jenkins-Digger, is just starting and it is hard to come up with student ideas.

After spending a lot of time thinking about it and reading JIRA tickets [1] for inspiration, the only thing I can come up with is client libraries for Jenkins-Digger in many different languages and platforms like Golang, Python, Ruby etc.

While this idea might be OK, it might be a little bit too easy. GSoC FAQ page says [2] "30+ hours a week working on your project during the 3 month coding period". 
What do you think?

Windows containerized Docker builds 
BTW, this is a simple and brilliant idea.

Hi,

for this years GSoC, I think it would be interesting to have students evaluate some ideas.

For Push Server:
* Apache HBase database model for UPS + migration of data from SQL (MySQL/Postgres) to HBase
* Apache Kafka for centralized messaging in UPS
* Apache Spark for realtime processing of our push metrics 

Some of the above ideas are already capture in this larger/raw JIRA:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AGPUSH-1998


For Jenkins-Digger:
* Windows containerized Docker builds 

Any other thoughts ?
