Additional Information Requested from All Projects

Supporting Data (if needed, include links to specific examples)

Intention for the upcoming year (Remain at current stage OR advance towards the next Stage)

Move to Stage 3


Include a link to your project’s CommunityBridge Insights page. We will be looking for signs of consistent or increasing contribution activity. Please feel free to add commentary to add color to the numbers and graphs we will see on Insights.

Over the last 90 days we have 546 Commits from 30 Authors to 5 Repositories

A year earlier under the same 90 days we had 340 Commits from 20 Authors to Repositories

LFX Insights-EVE Commits

How many maintainers do you have, and which organizations are they from? (Feel free to link to an existing MAINTAINERS file if appropriate.)

Note: For EVE, we do not have many branches, so for us we are using the term Maintainer as someone who is has a major part in determining our direction.  Namely people who are planning features or producing architectural diagrams that will shape how we move forward. 

Contributors: 40 over the last year

Committers: 14 (the TSC)

What do you know about adoption, and how has this changed since your last review / since you joined the current Stage? If you can list companies that are end users of your project, please do so. (Feel free to link to an existing ADOPTERS file if appropriate.)

There have been many PoCs and already some commercial deployment using EVE. Currently the public commitments are limited to e.g.,

Some of the interested parties have presented and discussed this at https://zededa.com/transform/ and a talk at RancherCON with the abstract at https://www.accelevents.com/e/edgeconference2020#agenda including:

Join Rancher’s Mikhail Kozorovitskiy, Schlumberger’s Vassilis Varveropoulos, and ZEDEDA’s Seyi Verma to learn about:

  1. The need for Kubernetes at the Edge
  2. The unique requirements Kubernetes at the edge brings
  3. How SLB, ZEDEDA, and Rancher are working together to create real-life opportunities at the edge
How has the project performed against its goals since the last review? (We won't penalize you if your goals changed for good reasons.)This is the first review. 
What are the current goals of the project? For example, are you working on major new features? Or are you concentrating on adoption or documentation?

Goals for 2021

  1. Graduate to Stage 3
  2. Grow the number of project maintainers
  3. Grow the ecosystem of qualified hardware and edge applications running on EVE
  4. Provide full integration with existing LF Edge applications: EdgeX, Fledge, SDO, Open Horizon
  5. Codify our relationship with existing LF Edge applications via 1-3 Akraino Blueprints
    (Industrial IoT Edge Blueprint in progress)
How can LF Edge help you achieve your upcoming goals?

Upstream: Moby ecosystem, OCI, CNCF (esp. K3S), OSDU
Downstream: Edge Application and Hardware Vendors

Does LF have a relationship with the OpenGroup? EVE is starting to work with the OSDU group.

Bringing in more edge application and hardware vendors as members in LF Edge would be helpful not only for EVE but for LF Edge as a whole.

Do you think that your project meets the criteria for the next Stage?

  1. Have a defined governing body of at least 5 or more members (owners and core maintainers), of which no more than 1/3 is affiliated with the same employer. In the case there are 5 governing members, 2 may be from the same employer.
  2. Have a documented and publicly accessible description of the project's governance, decision-making, and release processes.
  3. Have a healthy number of committers from at least two organizations. A committer is defined as someone with the commit bit; i.e., someone who can accept contributions to some or all of the project.
  4. Demonstrate evidence of interoperability, compatibility or extension to other LF Edge Projects. Examples may include demonstrating modularity (ability to swap in components between projects).
  5. Adopt the Foundation Code of Conduct.
  6. Explicitly define a project governance and committer process. This is preferably laid out in a GOVERNANCE.md file and references a CONTRIBUTING.md and OWNERS.md file showing the current and emeritus committers.
  7. Have a public list of project adopters for at least the primary repo (e.g., ADOPTERS.md or logos on the project website).

Project Stages: Definitions and Expectations

  1. Have a TSC- want more diversity of companies
  2. Done
  3. Need to expand diversity of companies
  4. Done- Currently working with multiple projects
  5. Done
  6. The contributing.md file has this. Need to make sure that there is a link to the governance part
  7. Need to work on public adopters
Please summarize Outreach Activities in which the Project has participated in (e.g. Participation in conferences, seminars, speaking engagements, meetups, etc.)

Sample Project had a kiosk at IOT SWC as well as ONES NA. Also participated in the LF Edge "On the Edge" webinar series.

Speakers at many conferences about OSS, IoT, and IIoT such as:

  • OSS EU 2019 (plus presenting other LF edge projects during a half-day session)
  • ONES 2020 (multiple sessions)
  • RancherCON 2020

Extensive work on the LF Edge user groups creation

Extensive work on the LF Edge Whitepaper
